The typographical error is a slippery thing and sly,
You can hunt till you are dizzy, but it somehow will get by.
"Til the docunent is off the typewriter, it is strange
hew still it keeps.
It shrinks dewn in a comer and it never stirs or peeps.
That typographical error, too small for human eyes,
'Til the ink is on the paper, when it grows to mountain size.
The Editor, she stares with horror, then she grabs her hair and
groans.
She drops her head upon her hands and moans.
The remainder of the document may be as clean as clean
can be
but the typo is the only thing you see!
