Come on everybody, I say now let's play a game I bet you I can make a rhyme, out of anybody's name The first letter of the name I treat it like it wasn't there But a 'B' or an 'F' or an 'M' will appear And then I say "Bo" add a 'B' then I say the name Then "Bonana Fanna" and "Foe" And then I say the name again with an 'F' very plain Then a "Fee Fi" and a "Mo" And then I say the name again with an 'M' this time And there isn't any name that I can't rhyme Okay.
