The bedbugs hit a home run and kicked me out of bed
Flypaper flypaper ewwy gooey goo
Flypaper flypaper Always sticks to you
A man was Sitting on the tracks
waiting for a train
Yisgadal vyiskadash

I woke up I in the morning
I looked upon the wall
The bedbugs and the roaches
Were having a game of ball.
The score was 6 to nothing
The roaches Were ahead
The bedbugs hit a homerun
And knocked me out of bed
Fly paper flypaper...
A man was standing by the tracks and didn't see the train.
Vyisgadal vyiskadash vyimru amein
A man was standing by his home and by his home he died
They didn't know what to call it so they called it homicide....
You must have gone to the same day camp as me. Imagine if our kids came home with these songs

I know that as a completely separate one:
X marks the spot
With three little dots
Dash dash dash
And a question mark
With a tickle tickle tickle
And a little squeeze
And a cool ocean breeze

...She swallowed the dog to catch the cat
How bout that? She swallowed a cat!
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
How absurd! She swallowed a bird.
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled and jiggled and tickled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don't know why she swallowed a fly.
Perhaps she'll die.
There was an old lady who swallowed a horse
She died, of course. |
I've seen a series of picture books about this concept. In the winter one, There Was a Cold Lady Who Swallowed Some Snow, she swallows a bunch of stuff and then sneezes it all up as a snowman. There's a fall one, different holiday ones, etc.
