Children's Play Song
Chorus:
Boom, Boom, ain't it great to be crazy
Boom, Boom, ain't it great to be crazy
A horse and a flea and three blind mice
Sat on a table shooting dice
The horse, he slept and fell on the flea
Oops said the flea, there's a horse on me (chorus)
Eli, Eli, he sells sox
A dollar for a pair, a nickel for a box
The longer you wear 'em, the shorter they get
You put 'em in the water and they don't get wet (chorus)
A man sells a pair of Venetian underwear
He wore 'em nine months without a single tear
Wore 'em nine months, without exageration
Couldn't take 'em off 'cause he lost the combination (chorus)
