The Lollipop Man
Various Artists - The Mother of all MorrisChorus: trad. Verses: © Jim Causley, Paul Wilson & Marilyn Tucker 2007Oh the lollipop man has a great big stick
And all that he charges is a penny a lick
And he gets it out whenever he can
He’s a dirty old devil is the lollipop manWho is this with his spurty spout?
A dribbly cone, you can suck it all out
And a knicker-knocker glory, it’s the ice-cream man
But he cannot hold a candle to the lollipop manMy Grandfathers Ferret
Possibly by Derek Jolly?My grandfather’s ferret was a beast of little merit
What lived out the back in a cage
If you peered through the bars you’d see eyes like little stars
All a-glimmer with impotent rage
The smell it gave off made you splutter gasp and cough
And its habits were exceedingly gross
For it bit off anything it could reach if you stood too close
