Come on everybody
I said let′s play a game
I betcha I can make a rhyme
Out of anybody's name

The first letter of the name
I treated like it wasn′t there
But an B or an F
Or an M would appear

And then I say "Bo" add a "B" then I say the name
Then "Bo-na-na fanna" and "fo"
And then I say the name again with an ""f" very plain
Then "fee fi" and a "mo"
And then I say the namе again with an "M" this time
And there isn't any namе that I can't rhyme
Katie
Katie, Katie, bo-batie
Banana-fana fo-fatie
Fee-fi-mo-matie
Katie!

But if the first two letters are ever the same
Crop them both, then say the name
Like Bob, Bob, drop the "B′s", Bo-ob
Or Fred, Fred, drop the "F′s", Fo-red
Or Mary, Mary, drop the "M's", Mo-ary
That′s the only rule that is contrary

Ok now let's try Michael
Now Michael with a B
Then "bo-nanna-fanna-fo"
Then say it with an F this time
Then "fee-fi-mo"
Then you say the name again with an M this time
And there isn′t any name that you can't rhyme

Let′s try Jason!
Jason, Jason, bo-bason
Banana-fana fo-fason
Fee-fi-mo-mason
Jason!
Lauren!
Lauren, Lauren, bo-bauren
Banana-fana fo-fauren
Fee-fi-mo-mauren
Lauren!

Let's do David!
David, David, bo-bavid
Banana-fana fo-favid
Fee-fi-mo-mavid
David!

A little trick with Nick!
Nick, Nick, bo-bick
Banana-fana fo-fick
Fee-fi-mo-mick
Nick!

Now try your name!
