Subject: RE: Songs with 'nonsense' lyrics?
Anyone fill in the blanks here? Send me the rest.

The monkey married the baboon's sister,
Gave her a ring, and then he kissed her,
Kissed her so hard it raised a blister.
She set up a yell.
The bridesmaid put on some court plaster.
Stuck so fast it couldn't stick faster.
Surely 'twas a sad disaster,
But it soon got well.

Well what do you think the bride was dressed in?
White gauze veil and a green glass breast pin,
Red kid shoes quite interestin'.
She was quite a belle.
The groom he blazed in a blue shirt collar,
Black silk top hat cost a dollar,
Large false whiskers, the fashion to foller,
Cut a monstrous swell.

Well, what do you think they had for dinner?
???????????????????????????????????
???????????????
Peanuts not a few.

What do you think were the tunes they danced to?
What were the figures they advanced to?
Up and down now as they chanced to.
Their tails they were too long.
Duck in the kitchen old aunt sally
Plain cotillion who keeps tally
Up and down they charge and rally
Ended is my song.
