That one’s changed a little, I learned it in ’07 on PI and it went:
Little yellow birdie with a little yellow bill,
Landed on my windowsill.
I lured him in with a piece of bread,
Then I bit off his mother f***ing head!
Little brown puppy with the big brown eyes,
Wandered in from outside.
I lured him close with a piece of meat,
Then I ran a nail through his feet!
Stupid puppy!
Should have known:
Blood makes
The grass grow!
Little bird with a yellow bill,
landed on my window sill.
First I fed him crumbs of bread,
then I crushed his fuckin head.
