Chorus:

Eddie Koochie Catchinary Toesinary Moesinary Sammy Gammy Wacky Brown

WHO?

Grabbed his cane and hobbled into town and cried that…

To the well everybody came

What a shame it took so long to say his name that…

  1. I’m My Own Grandpa Song

 

Many, many years ago when I was 23,

I was married to a wider who was purty as can be.

This wider had a grown-up daughter who had hair of red

My father fell in love with her and soon they two were wed.

 

This made my dad my son-in-law and changed my very life

For my daughter was my mother cause she was my father’s wife

To complicate the matter even though it brought me joy,

I soon became the father of a bouncing baby boy.

 

I’m my own grandpa,

I’m my own grandpa

It sounds funny I know

But it really is so

I’m my own grandpa.

 

 

My little baby then became a brother-in-law to dad,

And so became my uncle though it made me very sad.

For, if he was my uncle, then that also made him brother

Of the wider’s grown-up daughter who, of course, was my step-mother.

 

My father’s wife then had a son who kept them on the run,

And he became my grandchild for he was my daughter’s son.

My wife is now my mother’s mother and it makes me blue

Because, although she is my wife, she’s my grandmother too.

 

I’m my own grandpa,

I’m my own grandpa

It sounds funny I know

But it really is so

I’m my own grandpa.

 

Oh, if my wife is my grandmother, then I’m her grandchild.

And every time I think of it, it nearly drives me wild

For now I have become the strangest case you ever saw

As husband of my own grandmother, I’m my own grandpa.

 

I’m my own grandpa,

I’m my own grandpa

It sounds funny I know

But it really is so

I’m my own grandpa.

  1. All You Etta Song

 

Chorus:

All you etta, think of all you etta,

All you etta think of all you et.

 

Think of all the [bread] you et,

All the [bread],

All you et,

Ohhhh . . .

– Chorus

 

(Repeat replacing [bread] with each food you had.)

 

 

 

  1. Ravioli

 

Chorus:

Ravioli, I like ravioli.

Ravioli, it’s the best for me.

 

Leader: Have I got it on my chin?

All: Yes, you’ve got it on your chin.

Leader: On my chin?

All: On your chin.

All: Oooooooooh… into Chorus.

 

(Repeat replacing [chin] with tie, shirt, pants, shoes, stove, tent, … until tired of it)

 

Leader: Is it all over?

All: Yes, it’s all over.

Leader: GOOD!

 

 

  1. Boa Constrictor Song

 

I’m being swallowed by a boa constrictor,

by a boa constrictor,

by a boa constrictor,

I’m being swallowed by a boa constrictor,

And I don’t like it one bit.

 

Well, what do you know, he swallowed my toe.

 

Oh gee, he’s up to my knee.

 

Oh my, he’s up to my thigh.

 

Oh yummy, he’s up to my tummy.

 

Oh fiddle, he’s up to my middle,

 

Oh yes, he’s up to my chest.

 

Oh heck, he’s up to my neck.

 

Oh dread, he swallowed my (gurgling, gagging noises)

 

 

  1. Chicken Lips and Lizard Hips Song

 

Oh, when I was a camper, I never liked to eat;

the cook put things upon my plate, I’d dump them on his feet;

but then one day he made this soup, I ate it all in bed;

I asked him what he put in it, and this is what he said.

 

Chorus:

Oh, chicken lips and lizard hips and alligator eyes;

monkey legs and buzzard eggs and salamander thighs;

rabbit ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies;

stir them all together, it’s called Sludge Soup Surprise.

 

I went into the bathroom and stood beside the sink;

I said I’m feeling slightly ill, I think I’d like a drink;

The cook he said, “I’ve just the thing, I’ll get it in a wink;

it’s full of lots of protein, and vitamins I think.”

– Chorus

 

 

  1. Gilligan’s Island Song

 

Just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale,

a tale of a fateful trip.

That started from this tropic port,

aboard this tiny ship.

 

The mate was a mighty sailing man,

the skipper brave and sure.

Five passengers set sail that day,

for a three hour tour.

a three hour tour.

 

The weather started getting rough,

the tiny ship was tossed.

If not for the courage of the fearless crew,

the Minnow would be lost,

the Minnow would be lost.

 

The ship took ground on the shore of this

uncharted desert isle,

with Giligan, the skipper too,

The millionaire, and his wife,

The movie star,

The professor, and MaryAnn,

here on Gilligan’s Isle.

 

So this is the tale of our castaways,

they’re here for a long, long time.

They’ll have to make the best of things,

it’s an uphill climb.

 

The first mate, and his skipper too,

will do their very best

to make the others comfortable

in this tropic island nest.

 

No Phones, No lights, No Motorcars,

Not a single luxury.

Like Robinson Crusoe

It’s primitive as can be.

 

So join us here each week, my friend,

you’re sure to get a smile,

from seven stranded castaways,

Here on Gilligan’s Isle!

 

  1. God Bless My Underwear Song

 

God bless my underwear, my only pair.

Stand beside them, and guide them,

Through the rips, through the holes, through the tears.

From the washer, to the dryer, to my backpack, to my rear.

God bless my underwear, my only pair.

God bless my underwear, or I’ll be bare.

 

God bless my underwear

That I wear down there.

I outgrow them, then throw them,

Those who wear them will never be square

When the bully, gives a wedgie

Pray that they won’t ever tear

God bless my underwear, my only pair.

God bless my underwear, or I’ll need to share.

 

 

 

  1. Hageleena Mageleena Song

 

Hagaleena Magaleena Upa Staka Waka Taka. Oka Poka Loka was her name. (Clap Clap)

There was a funny girl, she had a funny name.

She got it from her pappy just the same, same, same.

Her feet were flat as bathroom mats. I forgot to ask how they got like that.

Chorus

 

A semi-truck hit Mag-a-leena (slow down during this line)

(back to original tempo) Completely destroyed that poor machina!

  1. Hole in my Bucket Song

 

This can be a funny skit if two people have the courage to sing it in front of a group. Singing like an old man and woman is even funnier, with the woman getting more frustrated.

 

(Two parts – Henry and Liza)

 

There’s a hole in my bucket,

dear Liza, dear Liza,

There’s a hole in my bucket,

dear Liza, a hole.

 

Well fix it, dear Henry,

The axe is too dull, …

Then sharpen it, …

 

With what shall I sharpen it, …

With a stone, …

 

The stone is too dry, …

Then wet it, …

With water, …

 

In what shall I fetch it, …

Sitting under this here tree.

Everybody steps on me,

That is why I’m cracked you see.

 

Chorus:

I’m a nut,

I’m a nut,

I’m a nut, nut, nut-nut-nut.

 

Called myself on the telephone

Just to see if I was home.

Made a date for half past eight,

Better hurry or I’ll be late!

Took myself to the picture show

Sat myself in the very last row

Wrapped my arms around my waist

Got so fresh I slapped my face!

  1. Meadow Muffin Blues Song

 

Chorus:

I’ve got the meadow muffin blues,

On the bottom of my shoes.

Can’t seem to shake it,

Got to take it home and scrape it.

I got the meadow muffin blues.

 

While I was walkin’ through a field one day,

Stopped to say good day

A cow dropped her dinner

And I’m standing iner

She quickly smiled and walked away.

Chorus

 

Now a cow’s sense of humor is kind of bent

And the stuff is stickin’ like cement.

It started raining and my legs are really straining

So I kicked off my shoes and away I went.

Chorus

 

You’ve heard of the dangers in the woods,

And in the city it’s the druggies in the hoods.

When you’re walking through a pasture

You better walk a little faster

Or your shoes are going to pick up all the goods.

Chorus

 

 

  1. My Dead Dog Rover Song

I’m looking over my dead dog Rover,

That I over-ran with the mower.

One leg is missing the other is gone.

The third one is scattered all over the lawn.

No need explaining the one remaining

It’s splattered on the kitchen door.

I’m looking over my dead dog Rover,

that I over-ran with the mower.

 

I’m looking over my dead dog Rover

Who died on the kitchen floor.

One leg is broken, the other is lame,

The third leg is missing, the fourth needs a cane.

No need explaining, the tail remaining

Was caught in the oven door.

I’m looking over my dead dog Rover

Who died on the kitchen floor.

  1. Goober Peas Song

 

Sitting by the roadside on a summer’s day

Chatting with my mess-mates passing time away

Lying in the shadows underneath the trees

Goodness how delicious eating goober peas.

 

Chorus:

Peas, peas, peas, peas

Eating goober peas

Goodness how delicious

Eating goober peas.

 

When a horse-man passes, the soldiers have a rule

To cry out their loudest, ‘Mister, where’s your mule?’

But another custom, enchanting-er than these

Is wearing out your grinders, eating goober peas.

 

Chorus

 

Just before the battle, the General hears a row

He says ‘The Yanks are coming, I hear their rifles now.’

He looks down the roadway and what d’you think he sees?

The Georgia Militia cracking goober peas.

 

Chorus

 

I think my song has lasted just about enough.

The subject’s interesting but the rhymes are mighty rough.

I wish the war was over so free from rags and fleas

We’d kiss our wives and sweethearts, say good-bye to goober peas.

 

Chorus

  1. Greasy Grimy Gopher Guts Song

 

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts

Mutilated monkey meat

Hairy pickled piggy feet

French fried eyeballs floating in some kerosene

And me without a spoon.

 

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts

Scab sandwich, puss on top

Vulture vomit, camel snot

Deep dish boogers soaking in a bowl of fat

And me without a spoon.

 

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts

Parrot eyeballs dipped in glue

Petrified porpoise puss

Flaming ear wax bobbing in a bowl of barf

And me without a spoon.

 

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts

Dessicated dinosaur dung

Percollated pelican poop

Tortoise turd balls with the little flies inside

And me without a spoon.

 

 

  1. Hawaiian Punch Song

 

Here’s a story of a dole banana

Who was bringing up three very lovely fruit.

All of them had yellow peels, like their mother,

The youngest was a beaut.

Here’s a story of a great papaya

Who was living in a tree all on his own.

They were two fruit in the same forest

Yet they were all alone.

Until one day when banana met papaya,

And they knew that it was much more than a hunch

That this fruit could somehow form a fruit drink.

That’s the way they all became Hawaiian Punch.

Hawaiian Punch, Hawaiian Punch

Thats the way they became Hawaiian Punch.

There’s a hole in the bottom of the sea

There’s a hole in the bottom of the sea

There’s a hole, there’s a hole

There’s a hole in the bottom of the sea.

 

There’s a log in the hole in the bottom of the sea

There’s a log in the hole in the bottom of the sea

There’s a log, there’s a log

There’s a log in the hole in the bottom of the sea.

 

[Continue to expand using a smile, on the flea,

on the hair, on the wart, on the toe, on the foot,

on the leg, on the frog, on the bump, on the log

in the hole in the bottom of the sea. ]

Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider Climbed Up the Waterspout

The itsy bitsy spider, he burned his little butt!

 

 

  1. Little Black Things Song

 

Little black things,

Little black things,

Crawling up and down my arms,

If I wait till they have babies,

I can start a black things farm!

 

Haven’t had a bath in two years,

And I never change my clothes,

But I’ve got these little black things,

Where they come from, Heaven knows!

– Chorus

 

Once a cute girl, tried to kiss me,

But she screamed and gave a yell,

And she ran before I could ask her,

Was it the black things or the smell?

– Chorus

  1. Patsy Atsy Ori Aye Song

 

In 18 hundred and 41, work on the railroad had just begun.

Work on the railroad had just begun.

Working on the railroad.

 

Chorus:

Patsy-atsy-orri-ay

Patsy-atsy-orri-ay

Patsy-atsy-orri-ay

Working on the railroad.

 

In 18 hundred and 42 I found myself with nothing to do

I found myself with nothing to do

So I worked on the railroad.

 

In 1843 the railroad company hired me

The railroad company hired me

To work upon the railroad.

 

In 1844 found my back was mighty sore

Found my back was mighty sore

From working on the railroad.

 

In 1845 thought myself more dead than alive

Thought myself more dead than alive

From working on the railroad.

 

In 1846 I dropped four dynamite sticks

I dropped four dynamite sticks

While working on the railroad.

 

In 1847 found myself at the gates of heaven

Found myself at the gates of heaven

After working on the railroad.

 

In 1848 walked right through the pearly gate

Walked right through the pearly gate

After working on the railroad.

 

In 1849 floated around on cloud nine.

Floated around on cloud nine.

No more working on the railroad.

 

In 18 hundred and forty-ten, if you want to listen I’ll sing it again.

  1. Sam, Sam, the Lavatory Man Song

 

Sam, Sam, the lavatory man,

Chief inspector of the outhouse clan (stand straight like soldier & salute)

He issues the tissues, the paper, and the towels (pass out ‘items’)

He listens to the sounds of the rumbling bowels (hold hand to ear)

Down, down, down below the ground (point down on down)

Where all the little poopies are swimming around (swimming motion)

There sits Sam, the lavatory man,

Scooping up the poopies,

Scooping up the poopies,

Scooping up the poopies in his little tin can!

 

 

  1. Be Kind to Your Webfooted Friends Song

 

Be kind to your web-footed friends

For that duck may be somebody’s mother,

She lives in a nest in a swamp

Where the weather is always damp.

 

You may think that this is the end,

Well it is, but to prove we’re all liars,

We’re going to sing it again,

Only this time we’ll sing a little higher.

 

[Repeat the song but sing it a bit higher. Continue for as many rounds as you can stand.]

 

Finally, end with:

You may think that this is the end….

Well you’re right!

 

 

Be kind to your old umbrella,

For some day it may be under the weather.

Be kind to your old pair of shoes,

And they’ll keep out the rain and mud.

 

 

Be kind to your fur-bearing friends,

For a skunk may be somebody’s brother.

Be kind to your friends with the stripes

Including raccoons and snipes.

 

 

  1. The Thing Song

 

While I was walking down the beach one bright and sunny day,

I saw a great big wooden box a floating in the bay.

I pulled it in and opened it up and much to my surprise:

Oh, I discovered a (clap – clap – clap) right before my eyes.

Oh, I discovered a (clap – clap – clap) right before my eyes.

 

I picked it up and ran to town as happy as a king.

I took it to a guy I knew who’d buy most anything.

But this is what he hollered at me as I walked in his shop:

Oh, get out of here with that (clap – clap – clap) before I call a cop.

Oh, get out of here with that (clap – clap – clap) before I call a cop.

 

I turned around and got right out a running for my life.

And then I took it home with me to give it to my wife.

But this is what she hollered at me as I walked in the door:

Oh, get out of here with that (clap – clap – clap) and don’t come back no more.

Oh, get out of here with that (clap – clap – clap) and don’t come back no more.

 

I wandered all around the town until I chanced to meet,

A hobo who was looking for a handout on the street,

He said he’d take most anything – he was a desperate man.

But, when I showed him the (clap – clap – clap) he turned around and ran.

Oh, when I showed him the (clap – clap – clap) he turned around and ran.

 

I wandered on for many years a victim of my fate.

Until, one day, I came upon St. Peter at the gate.

And when I tried to take it inside, he told me where to go:

Get out of here with that (clap – clap – clap) and take it down below.

Oh, get out of here with that (clap – clap – clap) and take it down below.

 

The moral of this story is if you’re out on the beach,

And you should see a great big box, and it’s within your reach,

Don’t ever stop and open it up, that’s my advice to you

‘Cause you’ll never get rid of that (clap – clap – clap) no matter what you do.

‘Cause you’ll never get rid of that (clap – clap – clap) no matter what you do.

I tell you again, as a personal friend, she wore her New Jersey.
