Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

I found a sixpence and it is now mine now all mine
All the straight lines in the world
Crooked fine in my mind
I am a nursery rhyme, an old rhyme
Just silly no answers
There’s nothing to figure out
Flame from candle dances
Jack again broke his crown

Chorus:
I spent my sixpence and this crooked cat is now mine
All the requests in the world
Get that squeak off my mind
I am a nursery rhyme, an old rhyme
An old rhyme
Well it seems that my sleepless
Has made me loose my strength
And in weakened crookedness I spend all day

Chorus

I’ve been around every night a jerk in a gown
Yeah I’ve seen the cow jump the sun
I found a sixpence and it was then mine then all mine
All the straight lines in the world
Crooked fine in my mind
I am a nursery rhyme, an old rhyme
End sometime, end sometime

Thanks stuart and Rick C. If it were more my style I would also do something like I'm sitting on my ???. That seems to be what the song is about .
