From: Leadfingers It takes twenty four folksingers to change a light bulb.One to actually change it,three to sing in harmony about what a wonderful light it was , and the other twenty to stand around saying how much better a light bulb it would have been if it hadnt been electric. |

And it's no, nay, never No, nay, never, no more Will there be lightbulb-changers No, never, no more! |

But I had to reach too far, And I broke the wires-o. And Hand me the lightbulb, hand me the lightbulb, I don't want to reach down all the way-a-a-ay. Hand me the lightbulb, hand me the lightbulb, Don't take the whole ****ing day. |

From: Bullfrog Jones As I was going over to change a bulb this morning I met with my mate Barry and he gave me this stern warning First you take your lightbulb, then you take your socket Push the bulb right in to it and give a twist to lock it But be sure, oh be sure that you don't Fall of the ladder-o, fall off the ladder-o When changing that lightbulb BJ |

From: Mudlark I am a lightbulb, a jolly jolly lightbulb To be screwed into a socket is my delight Oh it's left-y loose-y and right-y tight-y Do it proper and I'll stay lit all night. Lightbulb, lightbulb, Nancy lightbulb Light up that lightbulb Nancy-o. ...funny how if you type lightbulb enough times it begins to look like a totally unintelligible bunch of letters. |
