The Hoggledy Higgledy Song
12 April 1991
Hoggledy Higgledy Hug
I've just eaten a slug,
Hoggledy Higgledy Ho
It tasted of jelly so.
Hoggledy Higgledy Hig
Now I've eaten a pig,
Hoggledy Higgledy Han
It tasted of English man.
Hoggledy Higgledy He
Last I've eaten a tree,
Hoggledy Higgledy Hole
It tasted just like your soul.
What's It All About ?
I've always been fascinated with the origins of nursery rhymes and this was my first attempt at one. It also sets out my view (at the time) of a crude spiritual food chain.
