THE GREEN FOLK
OF BABONGA


By Josie Whitehead

Green Folk of Babonga (The)

On the Island of Babonga

     Everyone is green.

They really are the strangest folk

     That you’ll have ever seen.

 

They dance the hokey-cokey

     In the middle of the day,

And never drive around in cars

     But slide around on trays.

 

The children of Babonga

     Never go to school,

For staying home and playing,

     Yes, that’s their golden rule.

 

What do they eat for dinner? –

     Well I knew you’d ask me that.

Frogs and toads, slugs and snails,

     And sometimes pussy cat.

 

                            Meeeeeow!

The hokey-cokey: - This is a party dance and song in which people stand in a circle, shke their arms and legs one at a time and move forwards and backwards.  It's great fun.
