Full poem as sung by my mother:

'With my thread and needle, I'll make the shroud.'
Who'll dig his grave? 'I' said the Owl, 'With my pick and shovel, I'll dig his grave.'
Who'll be the parson? 'I' said the Rook, 'With my little book, I'll be the parson.'
Who'll be the clerk? 'I' said the Lark, 'If it's not in the dark, I'll be the clerk.'
Who'll carry the link? 'I' said the Linnet, 'I'll fetch it in a minute, I'll carry the link.'
Who'll be chief mourner? 'I' said the Dove, 'I mourn for my love, I'll be
chief mourner.'
Who'll carry the coffin? 'I' said the Kite, 'If it's not through the night, I'll carry the coffin.'
Who'll bear the pall?' We, 'said the Wren, 'Both the cock and the hen, we'll bear the pall.'
Who'll sing a psalm? 'I' said the Thrush, 'As she sat on a bush, I'll sing a psalm.'
Who'll toll the bell? 'I' said the bull, 'Because I can pull, I'll toll the
bell.'
All the birds of the air fell a-sighing and a-sobbing, When they heard the bell toll for poor Cock Robin.
Posh Spice and David Beckham are sitting in front of the Television watching the six O'
clock news. The headline feature is a man who is threatening to jump off the Clifton Suspension Bridge onto the busy A4
below.
Posh turns to Beckham and says '
Dave, I bet you £5000 that he jumps.'
He replies '
£5000! Done.'
The pair shake on it and continue watching the commotion on the TV, sure enough, the man jumps
and hits the road below with a loud thud.
Beckham takes £5000 out of his pocket and gives it to Posh.
'I can't
take that from you Dave' she says. I was cheating. I saw the Five O'
clock News earlier so I
Knew what was going to happen. I can't
accept that money.'
Beckham replies, 'No Babe'.
The money is yours fair and square. I was cheating too. I just didn't
think he would do it again.'
