Some people are anxious for honor and fame
And they strive all
their lifetime in gettting a name.
But too much of a name is a possible thing
And this you
will say when you what I sing.
Now my father and mother were excellent folks,
But they
both had a weakness for practical jokes.
So when I was born they were both of one
mind.
They said I should have all the names they could find.
For there were Jonathan
Joseph Jeremiah
Timothy Titus Obadiah
William Henry Walter Sim
Reuben Rufus Soloman
Jim
Nathaniel Daniel Abraham
Roderick Frederick Peter Sam
Simon Timon Nicholas
Pat
Christopher Dick Jehosephat.
I was sent to be christened before I could speak
So
I might not object to this curious freak.
There were two other babies that morning as
well
But for those two babies it wasn't so swell.
The reason was that I was first of the
three
So the parson began operations on me.
And it took him so long for my titles to
call
That these two other babies got no names at all!
When I came to be married the
case was as bad.
The parson stared at me as if he was mad.
He started his task but he
found very soon
That the job was too great to be finished by noon.
Said he, ''My dear sir,
'tis a very great shame
That your parents denied you a sensible name.
But since you are
here without reason or rhyme,
You'll have to get married one name at a
time.''
