(Bob Landry wrote) Every once in a while, this musical phrase "Nickety, nackety, noo, noo, noo..." pops into my head. It comes from way back in time, probably the 1950's or 1960's when I was growing up (and that process ain't over yet) in Cape Breton.

Can anyone identify this tune and point me to the lyrics?

////////////////The first thing that popped into *my* head was the song that the children were singing inside the schoolhouse as the black birds gathered outside in the movie, "THe Birds." This is probably a different thread.....but what the devil song were they singing? Now, I can't get that tune out of my head!! PattyG
