The Name Game - Shirley Ellis
When talk about music, I always touch on pop music… new songs from US… not many people know that this mature man also like oldies…. for example…. today I pick to highlight here an old song called "The Name Song"
Know and like this song for years but never take effort to find out who the singer was or the song title. When I heard it play on radio this morning (just woke up and still lazy on bed than) I made a remark in my mind that I want to blog of this song today.
The ever helpful Google easily feed me with the information I need. Who is the singer (Found)
Who is Shirley Ellis ?
How the music of The Name game sound like ? You can watch and listen to this song thru YouTube of cause 
So have you reliased by now why I introduce this song over here ? Yes, the fun that you can get thru the lyric… it is a game… but need to listen carefully in order to know what she sang….. surely the lyric I paste up below will be helpful.
The Name Game
Shirley, Shirley bo Birley Bonana fanna fo Firley
Fee fy mo Mirley, Shirley!
Lincoln!
Lincoln, Lincoln bo Bincoln Bonana fanna fo Fincoln
Fee fy mo Mincoln, Lincoln!
Come on everybody!
I say 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 add a B then I say the name and Bonana fanna and a
fo
And then I say the name again with an F very plain
and a fee fy and a mo
And 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 Bonana fanna fo Farnold
Fee fy mo Marnold Arnold!
But if the first two letters are ever the same,
I drop them both and say the name like
Bob, Bob drop the B’s Bo ob
For Fred, Fred drop the F’s Fo red
For Mary, Mary drop the M’s Mo ary
That’s the only rule that is contrary.
Okay? Now say Bo: Bo
Now Tony with a B: Bony
Then Bonana fanna fo: bonana fanna fo
Then you say the name again with an F very plain: Fony
Then a fee fy and a mo: fee fy mo
Then you say the name again with an M this time: Mony
And there isn’t any name that you can’t rhyme
Every body do Tony!
Pretty good, let’s do Billy!
Very good, let’s do Marsha!
A little trick with Nick!
