The iggledee oggledee snitch

The iggledee oggledee snitch

Figgledee foggledee fish for tea
Across the oceans and under the sea 
Did dress his prawns with chilli and spice 
A cup of port and dames to entice 

Kibbledee kobbledee crickets for lunch 
Jumping Jiminy a taste tinsel munch 
Under the stars in rainforest green 
A billion creatures in a billion dreams 

Miggildee moggledee must be a cat 
The most versatile cat for a rebellious rat 
Flipping and flopping stretching and stride 
Rearranging the room with no place to hide 

Piggledee poggledee piggy for sale
With a talent for smell and twirl of a tail
Until one day the butcher came round 
With a knife and a block to weigh up a pound

Jiggledee joggledee justice just is 
The lawmaker Ronaldee ready for this 
Into the gaol for rape beneath coat  
Had the knight of the castle the story so wrote: 

"Poor las, she is finished
In a ditch, indeed  ditched
Murdered by one Piggledee Pog 
Who did his victim with a spade then a log"

Giddledee Godlledee you may wonder why 
The las at twenty did have to die 
You should consult Figgledee one and the same 
Who speaks of Kibbledee Jiggledee to blame

Niggleedee Noggledee knows the names 
Of all the scoundrels of all the games 
Off to the station on the Sabbath he went 
To report the perpetrator as in repent 

So the story ends as it starts 
Of Piggledee poggledee a scoundrel apart 
A las has died awfully in a ditch 
Murdered by the iggledee oggledee snitch
