I say now lets now 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
then I say
Bo - add a 'b' and then I say the name
banana fanna and foe
and then I say the name again with an 'f' very plain
then a fee fie and moe
and then I say the name again with an 'm' this time
and there isn't any name that I can't rhyme
