I KNOW A DITTY NUTTY AS A FRUITCAKE
GOOFY AS A GOON AND SILLY AS A LOON
SOME CALL IT PRETTY,
OTHERS CALL IT CRAZY
BUT THEY ALL SING THIS TUNE:

MAIRZY DOATS AND DOZY DOATS
AND LIDDLE LAMZY DIVEY
A KIDDLEY DIVEY TOO, WOULDN'T YOU?
YES! MAIRZY DOATS AND DOZY DOATS
AND LIDDLE LAMZY DIVEY
A KIDDLEY DIVEY TOO, WOULDN'T YOU?

IF THE WORDS SOUND QUEER
AND FUNNY TO YOUR EAR,
A LITTLE BIT JUMBLED AND JIVEY
SING "MARES EAT OATS
AND DOES EAT OATS
AND LITTLE LAMBS EAT IVY"

OH! MAIRZY DOATS AND DOZY DOATS
AND LIDDLE LAMZY DIVEY
A KIDDLEY DIVEY TOO, WOULDN'T YOU?
A KIDDLEY DIVEY TOO, WOULDN'T YOU?
