Hi. I'd like to take a look at some 1:24 scale collectible military figurines. Sorry, sir. We don't carry those. Um, actually, I think I saw some in your window a few days ago when I... Uh, we sold out. Well do you know when you might be getting more and? No. Sorry, you'll have to try another store. There. See? I did as you asked! Now please... Please! At least let Mister whiskers go! He has nothing to do with any of this!
OK…. can’t resist….(I may have posted this long ago on this site… if so, sorry…)
Several sites attest to the actor Cary Grant calling this his favorite poem….

"They bought me a box of tin soldiers,
I threw all the Generals away,
I smashed up the Sergeants and Majors,
Now I play with my Privates all day."
