Mud is irmy-squirmy goo.
Mud is runny, squeezy, funny.
Mud is oozey-woozey too.
Mud you can roll flat, mud you can press.
Mud is the nicest, muddiest mess.
Mud you can make with, mud you can share.
Our mud-pies are the best anywhere.
Mud is squidgy, slippery, sludgey.
Mud is irmy-squirmy goo.
Mud is runny, squeezy, funny.
Mud is oozey-woozey too.
