What silly songs do you and your family sing?
I took a girl out on a date last night.
Next to her, Gravel Gurdy would've look alright.
I told her I loved her, and oh how I lied,
And now she's gettin' ready to be my blushin' bride.
If she leads me to the altar, I'm sunk!
'Cause I can't tell the preacher I was drunk.
Lord have mercy on a no-account sinner.
Give me one more chance to let another guy win her.
If the ocean were whiskey,
And I was a duck,
I'd dive to the bottom
And never come <hic>
Ah meant to say "up!"
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Chimpie to the Monk,
"Baba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Said the Monkey to the Chimp.
All night long they'd chatter away,
All day long there were happy and gay,
Swinging and singing in their hunky-tonkey way.
"Aba, daba, daba, daba, daba, daba, dab,"
Means "Monk, I love but you."
"Baba, daba, dab," in monkey talk
Means "Chimp, I love you, too."
Then the big baboon one night in June,
He married them and very soon,
They went upon their aba, daba honeymoon.
Sung to the tune of "Four Leaf Clover" (Mad Magazine, circa 1968 or so):
I had a notion
To cross the ocean
That I'd never crossed before
I thought for certain
That Asia I'd reach
Now something tells me
I've hit the wrong beach
No silks are sold here
There ain't no gold here
Just rain and disease galore
Why did I do it?
I really blew it
When I reached the new world sho-o-ore
