Cool, is it?

I keep trying to find a solid reference linking him to the poem but cant - and the lyrics of the poem keep changing!!

Spring has sprung
The grass is riz
I wonder where
The flowers is

Or even better:

Spring has sprung
The flowers riz
The bird is on the wing
How absurd
Id always heard
The wing was on the bird.

heard it years ago, sure it was like this tho...

Spring is sprung,
The grass is ris,
I wonder where them birdies is?
Them birdies is on the wing,
Thats strange,
I thought the wing was on the bird!


EDIT:

tho google gives me

Spring is sprung
De grass is riz
I wonder where de boidies is?

De boidie?s on de wing
But dat?s absoid
I always hoid
De wing is on de boid

IIRC Its a nursery rhyme, not a poem although they are basically the same. Usually its treated as anonamous but may have been doen by Spike Milligan ;)
