Baby Beluga in the deep blue sea,
Swim so wild and swim so free. Heaven above and the sea below, And a little white whale on the go! Baby Beluga, Baby Beluga - Is the water warm, Is your mother home, With you so happy? Way down yonder where the dolphins play, Where you dive and splash all day, Waves roll in and the waves roll out, See the water squirting out of your spout! Baby Beluga, Baby Beluga - Sing your little song, Sing for all your friends, We like to hear you. When it's dark, you're home and fed, Curled up snug in your water bed. Moon is shining and the stars are out, Good night, little whale, good night! Baby Beluga, Baby Beluga - With tomorrow's sun, Another day's begun, You'll soon be waking. Baby Beluga in the deep blue sea, Swim so wild and swim so free. Heaven above and the sea below, And a little white whale on the go - You're just a little white whale on the go! |

I'm Popeye the Sailor Man,
I'm Popeye the Sailor Man! I'm strong to the finish, 'Cause I eats me spinach; I'm Popeye the Sailor Man! I'm one tough gazookus, Which hates all palookas, What ain't on the up and square. I biffs 'em and boffs 'em, An' always outroughs 'em, An' none of 'em gets nowhere! If anyone dasses to risk me fist, It's "boff" and its "wham", un'erstand? So, keep good behavior; That's your one life saver, With Popeye the Sailor Man! I'm Popeye the Sailor Man, I'm Popeye the Sailor Man! I'm strong to the finish, 'Cause I eats me spinach; I'm Popeye the Sailor Man! |

On Richmond Hill there lives a lass
More bright than May-day morn Whose charms all other maids' surpass A rose without a thorn. This lass so neat, with smiles so sweet Has won my right good will I'd crowns resign to call thee mine Sweet lass of Richmond Hill. Sweet lass of Richmond Hill Sweet lass of Richmond Hill I'd crowns resign to call thee mine Sweet lass of Richmond Hill. Ye zephyrs fair that fan the air And wanton thro' the grove O whisper to my charming fair "I die for her I love." This lass so neat, with smiles so sweet Has won my right good will I'd crowns resign to call thee mine Sweet lass of Richmond Hill. Sweet lass of Richmond Hill Sweet lass of Richmond Hill I'd crowns resign to call thee mine Sweet lass of Richmond Hill. |

The littlest worm, I ever saw,
Was stuck inside, my soda straw. He said to me, "Don’t take a sip." ‘Cause if you do, I’ll really flip. I took a sip, and he went down, Into my pipes, he must have drowned. He was my friend, he was my pal, He was my friend, and that’s the end. |

I'll never forget the day that I enlisted on the spree
----------------------------------------To be a greasy squaddy in the R.A.C. Now my heart is aching and a-breaking Toi be in Civvy Street once more. You ought to see the troopers on a Friday night' Burnishing all the tank tracks in the pale moonlight. There's going to be inspection in the morning And the Squadron Sergeant Major will be there. He'll be there, (he'll be there,) I'll be here (I'll be here.) In that little barrack room across the square. While they're fetching his shaving water I'll be snogging the colonel's daughter In that little barrack room across the square. [Edit 3 times, last edit by Former Member at Jan 9, 2010 8:01:06 PM] |

Cobbler, cobbler, mend my shoe.
----------------------------------------Get it done by half past two. Half past two is much too late! Get it done by half past eight. Stitch it up, and stitch it down, And I'll give you half a crown. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Dec 30, 2009 9:11:45 PM] |

A frog he would a-wooing go,
Heigh ho! says Rowley, A frog he would a-wooing go, Whether his mother would let him or no. With a rowley, powley*, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. So off he set with his opera hat, Heigh ho! says Rowley, So off he set with his opera hat, And on the road he met with a rat, With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mr. Rat will you go with me? Heigh ho! says Rowley, Pray, Mr. Rat will you go with me, Kind Mrs. Mousey for to see… With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. They came to the door of Mousey's hall, Heigh ho! says Rowley, They gave a loud knock, and they gave a loud call. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mrs. Mouse are you within? Heigh ho! says Rowley, Oh yes, kind sirs, I'm sitting to spin. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mrs. Mouse will you give us some beer? Heigh ho! says Rowley, For Froggy and I are fond of good cheer. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mr. Frog will you give us a song? Heigh ho! says Rowley, Let it be something that's not very long. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Indeed, Mrs. Mouse, replied Mr. Frog, Heigh ho! says Rowley, A cold has made me as hoarse as a dog. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Since you have a cold, Mr. Frog, Mousey said, Heigh ho! says Rowley, I'll sing you a song that I've just made. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. But while they were all a-merry-making Heigh ho! says Rowley, A cat and her kittens came tumbling in. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. The cat she seized the rat by the crown, Heigh ho! says Rowley, The kittens they pulled the little mouse down. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. This put Mr. Frog in a terrible fright, Heigh ho! says Rowley. He took up his hat and he wished them goodnight. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. But as Froggy was crossing over a brook, Heigh ho! says Rowley. A lily white duck came and gobbled him up. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. So there was the end of one, two, three, Heigh ho! says Rowley. The rat, the mouse, and the little froggy. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. |

Pancake Tuesday's a very happy day.
If we don't have a holiday, we'll all run away. Where shall we run to, up and down the lane. Here comes the teacher with a big fat cane! |
