A yo-yo daein the Heilan fling.
Pit-mirk's ane o Dracula's dothers
Legs in aa the airts
Like an octopus's oxters.
Aa drapt stitches,
Yon's her wyvin,
Etts mochs an midgies,
Wippit up in slivverin.
Forkietails for brakfast,
Flechs for tea;
Aa washed doon wi
Hornygolloch bree!
Stauns in the bath like a tattiebogie,
Maks me shakk like a feart auld fogie.
Spider, jiggin on a traicle drum -
Paradiddle, paradiddle,
Prum, prum, PRUM!
