Lyrics

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly
I don?t know why she swallowed the fly perhaps she?ll die
There was an old lady who swallowed a spider
It wiggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don?t know why she swallowed the fly perhaps she?ll die
Perhaps she?ll die

There was an old lady who swallowed a bird
A bird?how absurd
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
I don?t know why she swallowed the fly perhaps she?ll die
Perhaps she?ll die

There was an old lady who swallowed a cat
A cat?how about that
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird
A bird?how absurd
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled and jiggled and tickled inside her
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly
Why the hell did she swallow a fly perhaps she?ll die

Perhaps she?ll die
Die ? die
