Fun With Words
Nip, zip,
Apple-pip,
Flip flop,
Lollipop,
Down, up,
Buttercup,
Slip, sloop,
Nincompoop.
Splish, splash
Balderdash,
Skin, blister,
Tongue-Twister,
Click, clack
Natterjack,
Honey, bunny,
Words are funny!
Zig, zag,
Scallywag,
Whizz, bang,
Boomerang,
Fling, flung,
Currant bun,
Winklepicker,
Say it quicker!
