Aiken Drum lives on the moon and plays upon a ladle. He wears clothes made of food, whilst playing upon a ladle! What a guy!
lyrics
There was a man lived in the moon, lived in the moon, lived in the moon,
There was a man lived in the moon,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
Chorus:
And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle,
He played upon a ladle,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
His hat was made of cream cheese, of cream cheese, of cream cheese,
His hat was made of cream cheese,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
Chorus:
And he played upon a ladle, a ladle, a ladle,
He played upon a ladle,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
His shirt was made of sausages, of sausages, of sausages,
His shirt was made of sausages,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
His pants were made of custard, of custard, of custard,
His pants were made of custard,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
His shorts were made of bananas, bananas, bananas,
His shorts were made of bananas,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
His shoes were made of chocolate cake, of chocolate cake, of chocolate cake,
His shoes were made of chocolate cake,
And his name was Aiken Drum.
