Improving the Alphabet
Take pity on poor letter C:
It always follows A and B.
When Aussies write their alphabets,
Then third’s the place it always gets.
It hardly seems that this is fair
That C is always sitting there,
Behind the letters A and B,
But never leads, don’t you agree?
Forgive my words if I am blunt,
But I think C should be in front.
I’ve had enough of A-B-C:
Let’s have a change to C-A-B
Now C-A-B’s a proper word,
But A-B-C is quite absurd.
Then after CAB change DEF to FED
No nonsense now: real words instead!
