Worm Songs for Ken

Ken Armstrong was posting worm songs to Twitter. Can you come up with a few more great hits in worm song history?

From Ken:
Do not fish-hook me oh my darlin’ #wormsongs
One becomes Two #wormsongs

My own ideas seemed to be along a more violent bent that day.
Pop goes the birdie. #wormsongs
Dried Up by the Light. #wormsongs

The first that popped into my mind was the song ‘Ou812′ but I guess that isn’t about worms.

Hmm ‘Kissing the worm’? :)

Or bird on the wire by Cohen. :)

Øyvind June 27, 2009

Or The song of the Lambton Worm? :)

Heee. Sorry I missed this posting.

‘One Becomes Too’ even made me smile but somebody *had* beaten me to it. :)

Twitter is good for sparking ideas.

I thought of one today. “I Kissed a Worm and I Liked It” I’ll never think of Katy Perry the same way again.

how about this one from sesame street?

Inchworm
(Chorus:)
Two and two are four
Four and four are eight
Eight and eight are sixteen
Sixteen and sixteen are thirty-two

Inchworm, inchworm

Measuring the marigolds
You and your arithmetic
You’ll probably go far

Inchworm, inchworm
Measuring the marigolds
Seems to me you’d stop and see
How beautiful they are

I cannot believe y’all left this one:

The worms go in,
the worms go out . . .

And another worm bites the dust….

When the worms go marching in.
this is the worm that never ends, some people started…. eeech, grosss.

Thats all my little uncreative mind can think of :p

The Worm is Not Enough, performed by Garbage

Sorry, not so imaginative :-(
