Ding Dong Dilly-Oh


Ding dong dilly-oh

Is that the door bell I hear?

Ding dong dilly-oh

That is music to my ears!

 

Tit tap, pitter-pat

That’s me running to the door

Tip tap pitter pat

My little feet on the floor

 

Slip slide, skidder side

Me turning direction

Slip slide skidder side

Trying to fix my correction

 

Clink clank, clitter clak

Me rummaging through my purse

Click clank, clitter clak

I swear, this bag is getting worse

 

Creak crack, swingy swish

The door finally opens

Creak crack swingy swish

The smell overwhelms me

 

Drip drop, ploppy plop

Now, the money is given

Drip drop, ploppy plop.

I have waited and thriven

 

Slam jam, slammy ham

As I shut my door closed

Slam jam, slammy ham

Perhaps that was too hard?

 

Alley oop, happy hoop

Finally have my precious food

Alley oop, happy hoop

I open my box, ready

 

Crish crash, bang kaboom

This is a nightmare, or is it?

Crish crash, bang kaboom

The worlds over and I quit

 

Splish splash, drippy drop

Tears fall down as I start to cry

Splish splash, drippy drop

I had waited to long to eat this

 

Ding dong, dilly oh

This is the wrong pizza

Ding Dong, dilly oh

My sad small little world
