Father Vyvian O'Blivion Resplendent in his frock Was whipping up the batter For the pancakes of his flock He was looking rather bleary He forgot to watch the clock

But the night before Behind the door A leprechaun had stroked it

But the night before Behind the door A leprechaun had slowly storked it He slowly stroked it

But the night before Behind the door A leprechaun had stroked his spot He stroked his spot

It set him off in such a frenzy He sang "Lock Around the Crock!"

And he topped it off with a ... And he topped it off with a ... And he topped it off with a ...

oo ooo ooo oo ooo ooo oo ooo ooo

As he stumbled on his ... He was delighted as it stiffened And ripped right through his sock

"Oh St. Alfonzo would be proud of me" He shouted down the block

Domine vobiscum Et cum spiritu tuo Don't you eat my sleazy pancakes Just for Saintly Alphonzo

They're so light and fluffy white We'll raise a fortune by tonight They're so light and fluffy white We'll raise a fortune by tonight They're so light and fluffy brown They're the finest in the town They're so light and fluffy brown They're the finest in the town

Good morning your highness oo oo ooo Good gosh, you're sumptuous oo oo ooo

Good morning your highness oo oo ooo Good gosh, you're sumptuous oo oo ooo
