The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

To be simple and wise

Never tell lies

Always pick on someone my own size

Could be quite a thing

If I make it swing

I'll write you a letter or I'll give you a ring

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the chicken

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the chicken

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the chicken

Holding you tight is extremely all right

If ain't called love then it ain't worth a light, sailor

To be sweet and true

To the likes of you

A promise that time will not undo

Would be truly smart

And when I make a start

I'll come and pick you up in the horse and cart

The mouse runs up your leg, it's one o'clock in China

The mouse runs up your leg, ooh, it's one o'clock in China

The mouse runs up your leg, oh, it's one o'clock in China

Oh for the wings of a dove, goodness me, I'm in love

Arms of love are open always, all around you closing theirs

You're a darling and I love you

Signed politely, one who cares

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens

Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens

To be simple and wise
