Thread Name: eat some worms
Subject: RE: eat some worms
I recall Tom Paley singing this, and he had it:

Nobody loves me,
Everybody hates me,
I'm gonna go out and eat worms.
Big ones, small ones,
Fat ones, squishy ones,
I'm gonna go out and eat worms.
Bite off their heads,
Bite off their tails,
Suck all the custard out.

He says that picturing worms as "animated eclairs" was a new way to see them.
