World Must Be Coming To An End
#singalangtaethelangestsang
We sent her out for fish
Oh aye oh aye
We sent her out for fish
Oh aye oh aye
We sent her out for fish and she came back with a dish!
Oh the world must be coming to an end. Oh aye.
We sent her out for lemons, oh aye oh aye
We sent her out for lemons oh aye oh aye
We sent her out for lemons
And she came back with a melon
Oh the world must be coming to an end oh aye.
by Hannah and Sofia p3
I sent her for chips
Oh aye, oh aye,
We sent her for chips
Oh aye
I sent her for chips
And she fell and broke her hips
The world must be coming to an end.
Oh aye
I sent her out for broth
Oh aye, oh aye,
We sent her out for broth
Oh aye.
I sent her out for broth
And she came back with a cough.
Oh the world must be coming to an end
Oh aye
We sent her for bananas
Oh aye, oh aye
We sent her for bananas
Oh aye, oh aye
We sent her for bananas
An she went in her pyjamas
Oh the world must be coming tae an end
Oh aye
We sent her for pears
Oh aye, oh aye
We sent her for pears
Oh aye, oh aye
We sent her for pears
An she fell doon the stairs
Oh the world must be coming tae an end
Oh aye
