If you’ve got a bowl of jelly,
Quickly put it in your belly,
Just in case it might wobble away,
Because when it wibble wobbles,
It might cause a lot of trouble,
If it falls on the floor,
And slides away,
Your dog might have a gobble,
And start to wibble wobble,
And wobbly dogs really aren’t,
A good idea,
When you take her for a walk,
She may bounce along the floor,
And roll uncontrollably away,
So if you’ve got a bowl of jelly,
Quickly put it in your belly,
But I’m sure that you would,
Anyway!
