Light as a feather, there is nothing in it, yet the strongest man can't hold it for much more than a minute. Sends paper without using the post office.Ī great mystery that the bold have been known to journey into. What is found over your head but under your hat?ĭon't forget to do this when blowing out the candles. It cannot be seen, it weighs nothing, but when put into a barrel, it makes it lighter. It is yellow and you can serve it but not eat. What is it that no man ever saw, which never was, but always will be?Įveryone has it and no one can lose it, what is it?
What has a thumb and four fingers but is not alive? What has to be broken before you can use it? What can fill a room but takes up no space? They come out at night without being called, and are lost in the day without being stolen. What goes through towns and over hills but never moves? What loses its head in the morning but gets it back at night? No matter how little or how much you use me, you change me every month. What is black when it is clean and white when it is dirty? It goes into the water black and comes out red. The more you take away, the larger it becomes. What goes up the chimney down, but can't go down the chimney up? It belongs to you but others use it more than you do. It's been around for millions of years, but it's no more than a month old. It stands on one leg with its heart in its head. Who spends the day at the window, goes to the table for meals and hides at night? Round as a dishpan, deep as a tub, and still the oceans couldn't fill it up.īind it and it walks. I'm lighter than air but a million men can't lift me. If you drop me I'm sure to crack, but give me a smile and I'll always smile back.
