Version by David Thurlow


Nobody likes me everybody hates me
I think I’ll go eat worms
Long ones, short ones, fat ones skinny ones,
Ones that squiggle and squirm
Bite their heads off suck their guts out throw their skins away
Nobody knows that I eat worms, 3 times a day

Got the wiggle wiggle, got the wiggle hey
Got the wiggle wiggle
Got the wiggle wiggle, got the wiggle hey

Got the wiggle wiggle

Wait a minute, I don't feel good
I ate more worms than I probably should
I've got friends but we sometimes fight
And I know tomorrow we make it right
I know that they like me, not everyone hates me
So maybe I shouldn't eat worms
But it feels so good to sing this song
It makes me feel better even though it's wrong so

​Nobody likes me everybody hates me
I think I’ll go eat worms
Long ones, short ones, fat ones skinny ones,
Ones that squiggle and squirm
Bite their heads off suck their guts out throw their skins away
Nobody knows that I eat worms, 3 times a day

Got the wiggle wiggle, got the wiggle hey
Got the wiggle wiggle
Got the wiggle wiggle, got the wiggle hey

Got the wiggle wiggle

About the Song

The exact origin of the "Nobody Likes Me, Everybody Hates Me" song is a little murky. There's no record of a single songwriter or specific date it came about. Here's what we do know:

  • Folklore: It seems to be a piece of children's folklore that's been passed down orally through generations. There are references to it existing as early as the 1860s
  • Lyrics Variations: The lyrics can vary slightly, with some versions mentioning the size and texture of the worms or the way they're eaten.
  • Function: It's a way for children to express feelings of loneliness or frustration in a humorous and somewhat dramatic way. The idea of eating worms is obviously unrealistic, making it a silly outlet for negative emotions.
  • Modern Adaptations: The song continues to be relevant today. There are children's book versions and even videos with animated characters acting out the song.

Below are some of our favourite versions of the songs from the comment section. 

Nobody loves me everybody hates me
I'm going into the garden to eat worms.
Long thick slimy ones. Short fat sticky ones.
Watch them wiggle and squirm.

First you bite their heads off. Then you squeeze their guts out. Watch them wiggle and squirm. Nobody loves me, everybody hates me. I'm going into the garden to eat worms

We love this version posted by LOMION

Nobody likes me,
Everybody hates me.
I think I'll eat some worms!
Short fat juicy worms,
Long slim slimy worms,
Fat fuzzy wuzzy wuzzy worms!

First you bite the heads off,
Then you suck the guts out,
Then you throw the rest away.
Short fat juicy worms,
Long slim slimy worms,
Fat fuzzy wuzzy wuzzy worms!

Down goes the first one,
Down goes the second one,
Down go all of them worms.
Short fat juicy worms,
Long slim slimy worms,
Fat fuzzy wuzzy wuzzy worms!

Everybody likes me,
Nobody hates me.
Why did I eat those worms?
Short fat juicy worms,
Long slim slimy worms,
Fat fuzzy wuzzy wuzzy worms!

Up comes the first one,
Up comes the second one,
Up come all of them worms.
Short fat juicy worms,
Long slim slimy worms,
Fat fuzzy wuzzy wuzzy worms!

Watch the New Version of 1,2,3,4,5 Once I Caught a Fish Alive

Lyrics to the Caper Kids Music Version

One, two, three, four, five, once I caught a fish alive
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, then I let it go again
Why did you let it go? Because it bit my finger so
Which finger did it bite? This little finger on my right

One, two, three, four, five, once I caught a fish alive
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, then I let it go again
Why did you let it go? Because it bit my finger so
Which finger did it bite? This little finger on my right

Don’t go fishing it’s a dangerous sport
If you use your fingers you might get caught
By a big bad fish, with big bad teeth
So make sure you fish carefully

One, two, three, four, five, once I caught a fish alive
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, then I let it go again
Why did you let it go? Because it bit my finger so
Which finger did it bite? This little finger on my right

Don’t go fishing it’s a dangerous sport
If you use your fingers you might get caught
By a big bad fish, with big bad teeth
So make sure you fish carefully

Original Version of 1,2,3,4,5 Once I Caught a Fish Alive

Lyrics and Chords

F
One, two, three, four, five,
                         Bb
Once I caught a fish alive,

Six, seven, eight, nine, ten,
C               F
Then I let it go again.

F
Why did you let it go?
                           Bb
Because it bit my finger so.

Which finger did it bite?
C                     F  
This little finger on the right.

Lyrics and Chords
(first round can be sung as an echo with a leader and group)

My highland goat
Was feeling fine 
He ate three shirts 
Off my back line

I took a stick 
Gave him a whack 
And tied him to 
The railway track

The whistle blew 
The train drew nigh 
My highland goat 
Was sure to die

I took a knife 
And cut that rope 
And set him free 
My highland goat

My highland goatie-oatie-oatie-oatie-oat 
Was feeling finey-iney-iney-iney-ine 
He ate three shirty-irty-irty-irty-irts 
Off my back liney-iney-iney-iney-ine

I took a sticky-icky-icky-icky-ick
Gave him a whacky-acky-acky-acky--ack
And tied him tooey-ooey-ooey-ooey-oo
The railway tracky-acky-acky-acky-ack

The whistle blewie-ewie-ewie-ewie-ewe
The train drew nighey-ighey-ighey-ighey-igh
My highland goatie-oatie-oatie-oatie-oat
Was sure to die-ee-i-ee-i-ee-i-ee-i

I took a knifey-ifey-ifey-ifey-ife
And cut that ropey-opey-opey-opey-ope
And set him free-e-ee-e-ee-e-ee-e-ee

Lyrics

One grey elephant balancing
Step by step on a piece of string 
He thought it was such a wonderful stunt 
That he called for another elephant 

Two grey elepants balancing
Step by step on a piece of string 
They thought it was such a wonderful stunt 
That they called for another elephant 

Three grey elephants balancing
Step by step on a piece of string 
They thought it was such a wonderful stunt 
That they called for another elephant 

Four grey elephants balancing
Step by step on a piece of string 
They thought it was such a wonderful stunt 
That they called for another elephant 

Five grey elephants balancing
Step by step on a piece of string 
They thought it was such a wonderful stunt
That they called for another elephant

And what do you think happened?
They all fell off

Lyrics and Chords

G
Do your ears hang low?

Do they wobble to and fro?

Can you tie them in a knot?
             D
Can you tie them in a bow?
             G
Can you toss them over your shoulder like a regimental soldier?
           G     D      G
Do you ears hang low?

    About

    This is a collection of my favourite songs, rhymes, riddles and poems. Many of them I remember from my childhood and many of them I have discovered since then.

    I still sing many of these songs to this day, whether it is with my own children or the children that I teach at school. I find them a great means of stress relief both in and out of the classroom.

    Most of these songs should be in the public domain. You will also find that there are multiple versions for each song or rhyme. Please feel free to share your variation, request some sheet music or inform me of any funny songs that should be added to the list..
