The Ballad Of Chicken Soup

Today our dear friend Chicken Soup This very ordinary day Boiled up a pot of Chicken soup And swallowed it away A-lack! A-day! O-Woe! Oy-Vey! He swallowed it away! Now listen to what I'm gonna say A little bone, a bitty thing No bigger than my pinky- He swallowed hot From out that pot In quicker than a winky He gulped that soup Let out a whoop! And fell down croaking On the stoop And he Choked! And he SAGGED! And he SMOTHERED! And he GAGGED! And he let out a SCREAM! And he let out a MOAN! Then he cried 'Cause he died From choking on a bone On such an ordinary day Like today A-lack! A-day! O-Woe! Oy-Vey! On an ordinary day Chicken soup passed away!
