An otter swam out in the ocean The name of the otter was Otto When I swim through a wave I have to be brave! That's Otto the otters own motto Oh a branch on the top of an oak tree Lived a noisy old owl named Olly No one gives a toot when I sit her and hoot Said Olly the owl by golly! Odelay, odelay, odelay—oh! Odelay, odelay—aye! I could sing odelay all day because o words are such fun to say! Oliver lived in Ohio Cans of black olives he'd buy. After eatin' one can, he soon was a man full of oodles of olives—"Oh my!" And Owen put on his blue overalls. He put on his overcoat, too. He was all dressed at last, but he got dressed so fast, Owen went out with only one shoe! Odelay, odelay, odelay—oh! Odelay, odelay—aye! I could sing odelay all day because o words are such fun to say! A tuba goes oom-pah-pah! Piggies say oink! When you get a boo-boo, you say ouch! Okra is slimy, an orchestra plays, and you won't see an octopus slouch on a couch!—"Oh, no!" Olivia liked her eggs scrambled. She didn't like eggs over easy. "It's the firm eggs I choose; all the other eggs ooze, and oozy eggs make me feel queasy!" Odelay, odelay, odelay—oh! Odelay, odelay—aye! I could sing odelay all day because o words are such fun to say! Oh, I could sing odelay all day because o words are such fun to say!
