Thanks to all who sent versions of the worm poem/song. Here are 3 -
sorry no credits.

Strictly from my aged memory--Oh never laugh when a hearse goes by for
you
may be the next to die.  They wrap you up in a bloody sheet and put you
down about 6 feet deep. The worms call in and the worms crawl out.  The
worms play pinochle on your snout. Your stomach turns a moldy green and
pus pours out like thick whipped cream---AND ME WITHOUT MY SPOON!

Do You Ever Think?

Do you ever think when a hearse goes by
That you may be the next to die?
An undertaker tall and thin
Digs a hole and puts you in.
All goes well for about a week,
And then the coffin begins to leak.
The worms crawl in. The worms crawl out.
The worms play pinochle on your snout!
They use your bones for telephones
And call you up when you're not home.

               Traditional American

The Hearse Song

(From: "The Worm Song and Other Tasty Tunes", collected by Janet Wilson
and published by Scholastic)

Don't ever laugh when the hearse goes by
Or you may be the next to die
Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!

They'll wrap you up in a clean white sheet
And put you down about six feet deep
Ah-oo! Ah-ooo!

And all goes well for about a week
And then your coffin begins to leak
Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!

The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle on your snout
Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!

They eat your eyes, they eat your nose
They eat the jelly between your toes
Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!

They eat your clothes, they eat your hat
They crawl in skinny, then they crawl out fat
Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!

Then you turn disgustingly green
Your skin as slimy as whipping cream
Ah-ooo! Ah-ooo!

So next time you see the hearse go by
Watch out!
You may be the next (pause)
To (pause)
Die!
