Amazing paste, how smooth it is
that came from out o' that jar;
How mar-ve-lous it is to stick
a page that once flew free.

'Twas late one night I mixed it up
and left it to cool 'til dawn;
Then got out brush and masking strip,
to pages set upon.

Amazing paste, it saved the day,
and brushed out smooth and fine!
The client will be so happy
with books of such fine design.

Amazing paste, how smooth it is,
it saved three books for me;
and it took no more than a minute's mix
to turn out smooth, lump-free...

Amazing paste, how fine it is,
that came from out o' that jar,
How mar-ve-lous it is to stick
the page which once flew free
