Slippery Fish

A slippery fish, a slippery fish,
Swimming in the ocean.
A slippery fish, a slippery fish,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a tuna fish!

A tuna fish, a tuna fish,
Swimming in the ocean.
A tuna fish, a tuna fish,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by an octopus!

An octopus, an octopus,
Swimming in the ocean.
An octopus, an octopus,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a great big shark!

A great big shark, a great big shark,
Swimming in the ocean.
A great big shark, a great big shark,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a humongous whale!

A humongous whale, a humongous whale,
Swimming in the ocean.
A humongous whale, a humongous whale,
Glub. Glub. Glub.
Oh no, I’ve been eaten by a human!

Was it you?

Head, shoulders, Knees and Toes

(Tune: “London Bridge is Falling Down”)

Head and shoulders, knees and toes
Knees and toes, Knees and toes
Head and shoulders, knees and toes
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose

Other tunes

Head, shoulders, knees and toes
Knees and toes, Knees and toes
Head, shoulders, knees and toes
Eyes and ears and mouth and nose

Shoeing

Shoe the colt, Shoe the colt,
Shoe the wild mare;
Here a nail, there a nail.
Colt must go bare.

Go To Bed First

Go to bed first
A golden purse;
Go to bed second,
A golden pheasant;
Go to bed third,
A golden bird.

Friday Night’s Dream

Friday night’s dream
On Saturday told,
Is sure to come true,
Be it never so old.

“Be it never so old” can be interpreted to mean “not very old.”

Tommy Tittlemouse

Little Tommy Tittlemouse
Lived in a little house.
He caught fishes
In other men’s ditches.

Ride Away, Ride Away

Ride away, Ride away,
Johnny shall ride,
And he shall have pussycat
Tied to one side.
And he shall have little dog
Tied to the other;
And Johnny shall ride
To see his grandmother.

Fears and Tears

Tommy’s tears and Mary’s fears
Will make them old before their years.

Birds of a Feather

Birds of a feather flock together,
And so will pigs and swine.
Rats and mice have their choice,
And so will I have mine.

The Man in the Wilderness

The man in the wilderness asked me
How many strawberries grew in the sea.
I answered him as I thought good,
As many herrings as grew in the wood.
