Brrrrrrrrow,
Mr No-one No-one was the teacher in a school giving a lesson one afternoon.
Little Tommy Tomkins was the dunce and what a fool,
Didn't know which was the sun or moon.
Brrrrrrow,
Teacher said to Tommy Tomkins well,
See if you can sing this while you spell,
Constantinople,
C - O - N - S - T - A - N - T - I - N - O - P - L - E.
Constantinople,
It's as easy to say as saying your A – B – C.

Show your flock now try your luck and sing it loud with me,
