Don't sit on your melon
Melon squashy
Melon sloshy
Melon yummy
Melon scrummy
Melon smellin' lovely jubbly
Now I'm tellin' my friend Helen:
"Eat your melon
slurp, slurp, slurp.
Gobble your melon
burp, burp, burp.
Do what you want;
do what you do.
I don't mind.
It's up to you.
But -
don't-don't; don't-don't;
don't! don't! don't!
Don't SIT on your melon,
Helen!"
