Song Lyrics & Words
Tra la la boom di-ay
There was no school today.
Our teacher passed away,
She died of tooth decay!
We threw her in the Bay,
She scared the fish away!
And when we pulled her out,
She smelled like sauerkraut!
Alternative Lyrics & Words
A funny version involving lost pants!
Tra la la boom di-ay
I lost my pants today
Some boy took them away
He hid them down the drain
He said i'd find them someday
Then it started to rain
I found them in the the river today
They smelled of rotten rays
This one is about lost knickers!
Tra la la boom di-ay.
My knickers flew away.
They went on holiday.
They came back yesterday
Another pants themed version
Tra-la-la Boom de ay!
I took your pants away.
And while you're standing there,
I'll take your underwear!
No Sleep version
Tra-la-la-boom-di-ay,
I got no sleep today.
None either yesterday,
That's why I drive this way.
Additional Version
Tra la la boom, hooray
I met a guy today
He gave me twenty cents
To go behind the fence
My mother was surprised
To see my stomach rise
My father jumped for joy
It was a baby boy!
Tra la la boom!
Tra la la boom!
Tra la la boom!

I think the one about the teacher and baby are a bit sick and inappropriate for children!
