Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me Too

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too, 
Went for a ride in a flying shoe, 
“Hooray!” 
“What fun!” 
“It’s time we flew!” 
Said Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle was captain, Pickle was crew, 
And Tickle served coffee and mulligan stew 
As higher 
And higher 
And higher they flew, 
Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too, 
Over the sun and beyond the blue. “
Hold on!” 
“Stay in!” 
“I hope we do!” 
Cried Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.

Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too 
Never returned to the world they knew, 
And nobody 
knows what’s 
happened to 
Dear Ickle Me, Pickle Me, Tickle Me too.
