The little vixens, the saucy little vixens, [? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?].
I know that they did not, did not,

Frogs with dirty little lips
Dirty little warts on their finger-tips
Dirty ‘n green
Tiny ‘n mean
Floppin’ around
By the edge of the stream
Frogs with dirty little eyes
Dirty little tongues all covered with flies
Dirty brown
Floppin’ around
Puffed up ‘n bloated
When the sun goes down
Frogs with dirty little nose
Dirty little spots all over their clothes
Dirty legs
Dirty feet
