C’mon everybody, yeah!

I said let’s play a game

I betcha I can make a rhyme

Out of anybody’s name

The first letter of the name

I’ll treat it like it wasn’t there

But if a «B» or an «F» ever will appear

Then I say a for and a fi and I say the name

Banana fano and for

And then I say the name again

And I say the name again

With an «M» this time

There isn’t a name

That I can’t rhyme

Arnold Arnold bo barnold

Banana fano for farnold

Fe fi mo marnold

Arnold!

But if the first two letters

Are ever the same

Drop them both

And say the name

Like Bob, Bob drop the «B» spells ob

Or Fran, Fran drop the «F» spells ran

Or Mary, Mary drop the «M» spells ary

That’s the only rule that is contrary

Now let’s say Divi, Divi!

Now Divi with a «B», Bivi!

Then banana fana for, banana fana for!

Then you say the name again with an «F», very plain, Fivi!

Fe fi then mo, and fe fi then mo

Then you say the name again with an «M» this time, Mivi!

And there isn’t any name that I can’t rhyme

Now do Divi!

Divi Divi bo bivi

Banana fana for fivi

Fe fi mo mivi

Divi!
