Flutterbies and Scallywags
floating in a brizzillag.
Mumbliwags and prissywicks
swimming in a zig zag
All together, stroke, stroke,
the mumbliwags are swimming.
Dipping here and dipping there.
the flutterbies are skimming.
But not so much, those scallywags,
a lazy bunch they are...
and what about those prissywicks,
the laziest by far.
Bumblies are bumbling,
What very funny things.
Listing side to side are they
On their whimsy wings
Prissywicks and Frakkyliks
tiring long before,
any of their counterparts
on the brizzillag shore
Flitting hither and thither, and way beyond yonder,
the flutterbies flitter all day.
It's a shame, don't you know, when it comes to playing,
only the flutterbies come out to put on a show.
The rest are all lazy, and mindless or crazy
and float around in the brizzillag.
If it were a contest, you know who would be the best,
And Flutterbies would be winnin', every blue ribbon.
