Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm Fred Sharon
And I went shopping for love
But I couldn't find any
But I did find
For one pound
A Melody Lolly!

It's pink
And quite big
And it tastes of strawberry
It is a
Chupa chups
Melody Lolly

You can even
Play this thing
Here's a solo for you

So if you
Want to love me
Be sure to bring your
Melody Lolly




I'm pretty good at playing it
I'm the best in the land
