Modern Nursery Rhymes #23

Little Miss Muffet

Little Miss Muffet sat on a tuffet
Wondering what a “tuffet” was.
So she googled it.

Alternative Lyrics #47

I kissed a gorilla and I liked it
The taste of his banana chapstick
I kissed a gorilla just to try it
I hope his keeper don't mind it

(Things not to sing when you are "Keeper for a day")

How the North East has changed

This is the 2009 version of an old favourite "When the Boat Comes In":

Come here, maw little Jacky,
Now aw've smok'd mi backy,
Let's hev a bit o' cracky,
Till the boat comes in.
Dance ti' thy daddy, sing ti' thy mammy,
Dance ti' thy daddy, ti' thy mammy sing;
Thou shall hev Spider Crab, Lemon and Lemon Thyme Risotto with Tea Smoked Scallops, Pan Fried Grey Mullet, Spinach and a Beurre Noisette on a little dishy,
Thou shall hev Spider Crab, Lemon and Lemon Thyme Risotto with Tea Smoked Scallops, Pan Fried Grey Mullet, Spinach and a Beurre Noisette when the boat comes in.

You can't not love the Hairy Bikers.
