Now there are tracks, across your head
Oh, Tom the Toad, Oh, Tom the Toad
Why are you lying in the road?

Oh, Kitty Cat, Oh, Kitty Cat
Why does your tongue hang out like that?
Oh, Kitty Cat, Oh, Kitty Cat

Now that truck, spread out your guts . . .
Oh, Kitty Cat, Oh, Kitty Cat
Why does your tongue hang out like that?

Oh Fred the fish, Oh Fred the fish
Why are you lying on the dish?

Why are you lying on the dish?

Oh Bill the bug, oh Bill the bug
What are you doing on the rug

What are you doing on the rug

Oh Rog the dog, Oh Rog the dog
Why did you jump on that green log?

Oh Tom the Toad, Oh Tom the Toad
Why did you jump into the road?

Oh Tom the Toad, Oh Tom the Toad
Why did you jump into the road?

Oh AL the Gater, Oh Al the gater
You should have waited until later

Oh Possum Pete, Oh Possum Pete
There's nothing left but hair and feet
