Lyrics
- When I was young my mother used to tell me
Some fairy tales of folk in days gone by
But now I’ve found a Georgie
And call him Georgie Porgie
There’s quite another reason why I cry
Refrain
Oh! Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie
He kissed the girls and made them all cry
At least that’s what the story books say
But now somehow it’s different today
For Georgie Porgie’s puddings and pies
Consist of Vanps with wicked eyes
That makes up his dish, I only wish
That he would just kiss me
- On Tuesday night I caught him kissing Maisie
On Wednesday Nora, Mary, Rose and Joan
From Thursday night till Sunday
And even late on Monday
Some red-haired charmer claimed him as her own
Sung by Eleanor Forte AI, sequenced by Wachy:
