English poem
The Funny Octopus
by Albert Bigelow Paine (1861–1937)
A jolly old octopus lived in the sea, With a hey-diddle hi-diddle dum; And the funniest sort of a fellow was he, This jolly old octopus under the sea, With a mouth where the top of his head ought to be, To swallow the divers that come-- This jolly old octopus under the sea, With a hey-diddle hi-diddle dum.
