Remember any old silly verses etc you were told as a child


Recommended Posts

Gram told me another one:-

 

Mi father's a lavatory cleaner, he works in the middins at night,

And when he comes home in the mornin, he's covered all over in *****

 

For ***** insert Sweet Violets instead of *****

 

Here are the next two verses:

 

Some say that he died of a fever,

Some say that he died of a fit,

But I know far better than they do,

He died of the smell of the.Sweet vi-o-lets,♪♫ sweeter than the roses.....♪♫♫

 

Some say he was buried in gravel,

Some say he was buried in grit,

But I know far better than they do,

They buried him in six feet of.Sweet vi-o-lets,♪♫ sweeter than the roses.....♪♫♫

Thanks hillsbro that one is better, now I know what Peter means. :smile:

 

Where did you get the music notes from? what kind of keyboard do you have?

I want one:D

 

I've got an ordinary keyboard, but the way that posts on the Forum work is such that you can use "special characters". If you use Microsoft's "Word" as a word processing program, start a Word file and use the "insert symbol" feature to put whatever symbol you want into the text. When you have it ready, select the text and copy it (right-hand click and choose "copy", or press CTRL + C). Then start your Forum post and paste the text in (right-hand click again or CTRL + V).

 

This allows all kinds of symbols such as ½ ↨ ⅞ ↑ ⌂ ╜►◊ ◙ ♠ ♥ . You can even type in ελληνική, русский, עִבְרִית, or عَرَبيْ .

hey diddle diddle, the cat and the fiddle,

the cow jumped over the moon,

the little dog laughed to see such fun,

and the dish ran away with the spoon

 

Hey Diddle Diddle

The Cat did a widdle

All over the bathroom mat

The little dog laughed

To see such fun

That he widdled all over the cat!
