Say what?
Uma Joshi
yay yay yay
My mother told me
Sixty years ago
There came a lady
Knocking on the door
With an ooh, aah,
I want some pie
The pie is sweet
I want some meat
The meat is rough
I want to go by bus
The bus is full
I want to go by bull
The bull is fat
I want my money back
Does anyone remember the rest of this? And who the hell was this Uma Joshi anyway?
