A filthy mess o' me...
A filthy filthy filthy flea.
Climbing and clamboring for many a fauna...
Perchance of late-
Tw'ill bring about life's long gone dawn.
Molest thy eyes to stagger blind...
Keep hard in check-
For half of met one filthy hack to lend a
lonesome bind.
Skip to a lu lu me darlin' deep in dew...
Step real hard then softly feel as if set in stew.
Slant this affair straight to heart....
Give up thy beast b'fore thy cart.
Mush-mush-mush and hush my darlin'...
Keep hope of fear fro' mornin's starlin.
Gnish gnash for penny swept cash...
Tie down real hard thy window'd sash.
