Big Ted |
Big Ted’s dead, he was a great old pig |
He’d eat most anything, never wore a wig |
Now he’s gone like snow on the water, goodbye |
He was getting old, so the farmer said |
«Sold him to the butcher just to make a little bread» |
He’s gone like snow on the water, don’t cry |
Ted may be a moo-cow next time around |
Giving sweet milk to the people in the town |
He’ll be whatever he will choose on air or sea or ground |
The sows are busy with the piglets fine |
I’d put them in the forest now if they were mine |
Cause I know they like acorns and I don’t like bacon |
Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy |
Squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly |
Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy |
Sham sham sharoo, oh sham sham sharoo |
Big Ted’s sold and gone |
He came into the kitchen while we were away |
He took all the rice and he forgot to pay |
He’s gone like snow on the water, don’t cry |
He never cared to do the boogaloo dance |
All he ever thought about was food and romance |
Now he’s gone like snow on the water, don’t cry |
Ted may be a moo-cow next time around |
Giving sweet milk to the people in the town |
He’ll be whatever he will choose on air or sea or ground |
The sows are busy with the piglets fine |
I’d put them in the forest now if they were mine |
Cause I know they like acorns and I don’t like bacon |
Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy |
Squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly, squidly |
Boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy, boochy |
Sham sham sharoo, oh sham sham sharoo |
Big Ted’s sold and gone |
