Gooey Grimey Gopher Guts!

I remember it as:
Great big gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
mutilated monkey meat
chopped up baby parakeet.
All this stuff that is so good to eat
and me without my spoon.

The version I knew was somewhere between several of these with a variation:

Great big gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat, chopped up baby parakeet.
All wrapped up in percolated porpoise pus.
and me without my spoon to eat.

Here’s my family’s version:

Great, green globs of greasy, grimey gopher guts
Mulitated monkey meat
Putrefacted porpoise pus
Great, green globs of greasy, grimey gopher guts
And I forgot my spoon.

the first thread I started at SDMB was “Great Big Gobs”, looking for the definitive version, since Snookie, of course, had it wrong (His version had petrified porpoise pus, which simply doesn’t even scan correctly :rolleyes: ) however, since it was more than a year ago, I fear that it’s fallen off the edge of the earth

Mine, for the record was:

*Great Big Gobs of Greasy Grimey Gopher Guts,
mutilated monkey feet
concentrated birdie’s tweet

French fried eyeballs
swimmin’ in a pool of blood
and I forgot my spoon!*

Back in the fifties, the local version was:

Great big gobs of greasy, grimey gopher guts,
Itty-bitty birdie feet,
Mutilated monkey meat.
Great big gobs of greasy, grimey gopher guts
Cooked in a pot of pus.

Another minor variant:

*Great green gobs of greasy, grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat
Little dirty birdie feet
All soaked-up in all-purpose porpoise piss
And I forgot my spoon!

Sluuuuurp!*

Interesting, all the subtle variations. Here’s the one I remember:

Great big gobs of greasy, grimey gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat,
little birdies turdy feet

French-fried eyeballs,
Dipped 'em in a pool of blood,
And I forgot my spooooooon!
