Lyrics The Name Game

The name game, Shirley

Banana Fa Fo Firley

Fee Fi Mo Mirley, Shirley

Lincoln

Lincoln Lincoln Bo Bincon

Banana Fana Fo Fincon

Fee Fi Mo Mincon, Lincoln

Come on everybody

I said now let's play a game

I betcha I can make a rhyme out of anybody's name

The first letter of the name

I treat it like it wasn't there

But a B or an F or an M will appear

And then I say Bo and a Be then I say the name then Banana Fana and Fo

Then I say the name again with an F very plain then a Fee Fi and a Mo

Then I say the name again with an M this time

And there isn't any name that I can't rhyme

Arnold

Arnold Arnold Bo Barnold

Banana Fana Fo Farnold

Fee Fi Mo Marnold, Arnold

But if the first two letters are ever the same

Drop them both then say the name

Like Bob, Bob that's 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 say Bo

Now Tony with a B

Then Banana Fana and Fo

Then you say the name again with an F very plain then a Fee Fi and a Mo

Then you say the name again with an M this time

And there isn't any name that you can't rhyme

Everybody do Tony

Tony Tony Bo Bony

Banana Fana Fo Fony

Fee Fi Mo Mony, Tony

Pretty good

Let's do Billy
