I know a butter girl who chomped a dragon fly
In the east of Doggonderry she found a good guy
He kissed on her cheek with his Pygmalion beak
And she sat on a rose of the garden of Mandai
They fell in love and lived on a Quidrillion sea
And bought honey cubes from store of Queen bee
They went to ladybug's hotel Ilk for a quart of milk
And returned home with a cup of black tea
They were in love for ten thousand years
There were no fruitflies, no jackal fears
They moved to the south with trench mouth
Trailing behind an ocean of tears
