And a bearded lady said to me
If you start your raving and your misbehaving you'll be sorry.
Then the chicken-fancier came to play 
With his long red beard (and his sisters weird: She drives a lorry)

Laughed down by the putting green I popped `em in their holes.
Four and twenty labourers were labouring digging up their gold.
I dont believe they knew that I was long john silver.

Saw johnny scarecrow make his rounds
In his jet-black mac (which he wont give back) stole it from a snow man.
