The Name Game |
| Shirley Shirley bo burley |
| Banana fana for firley |
| Fe fi for firley |
| Shirley! |
| Lincoln Lincoln bo bincoln |
| Banana fana for fincoln |
| Fe fi for fincoln |
| Lincoln! |
| C’mon everybody, yeah! |
| I said let’s play a game |
| I betcha I can make a rhyme |
| Out of anybody’s name |
| The first letter of the name |
| I’ll treat it like it wasn’t there |
| But if a «B» or an «F» ever will appear |
| Then I say a for and a fi and I say the name |
| Banana fano and for |
| And then I say the name again |
| And I say the name again |
| With an «M» this time |
| There isn’t a name |
| That I can’t rhyme |
| Arnold Arnold bo barnold |
| Banana fano for farnold |
| Fe fi mo marnold |
| Arnold! |
| But if the first two letters |
| Are ever the same |
| Drop them both |
| And say the name |
| Like Bob, Bob drop the «B» spells ob |
| Or Fran, Fran drop the «F» spells ran |
| Or Mary, Mary drop the «M» spells ary |
| That’s the only rule that is contrary |
| Now let’s say Divi, Divi! |
| Now Divi with a «B», Bivi! |
| Then banana fana for, banana fana for! |
| Then you say the name again with an «F», very plain, Fivi! |
| Fe fi then mo, and fe fi then mo |
| Then you say the name again with an «M» this time, Mivi! |
| And there isn’t any name that I can’t rhyme |
| Now do Divi! |
| Divi Divi bo bivi |
| Banana fana for fivi |
| Fe fi mo mivi |
| Divi! |
| Let’s do Marsha |
| Marsha Marsha bo barsha |
| Banana fana for farsha |
| Fe fi mo marsha |
| Marsha! |
| A little trick with dick |
| Dick Dick bo bick |
| Banana fana for fick |
| Fe fi mo mick |
| Dick! |
