Name Game
Traditional Children's Song Lyrics and Sound Clip
Sharon, Lois & Bram

 

Come on everybody
I said, now, let's play a game
I bet ya I can make a rhyme
Out of anybody's name
I'll go first!

Sharon, Sharon bo baron banana fanon foe faron
Mi my moe maron
Lois, Lois bo bois banana fana foe fois
Mi my moe mois
Bram, Bram bo ram banana fana foe fam
Mi my moe mam

Here’s how it works...
The first letter of the name
You treat it like it wasn’t there
But a "b" or an "f"
Or an "m" will appear
Then I say "bo" add a "b"
And then I say the name
And then banana fana with a foe!
And then I say that name again
With an "f" very plain
Then a fee, fie and a moe
And then I say the name again
With an "m" this time

There isn’t any name that I can’t rhyme
Well, there isn’t any name that I can’t rhyme.
I’m gonna accept challenges right here.
I’m going down into the audience
And I’m gonna see if I can make some rhymes
Out of people’s names down here.
Jamie, Jamie bo bamie banana fana foe famie
Mi my moe mamie

Evan, Evan bo bevan banana fana foe fevan
Mi my moe mevan

Ben bo ben banana fana foe fen
Mi my moe men

The name game
The name game
The name game
