Kit wrote to us looking for help with a song her mom remembers…
Mom is 88. She knows part of an old song. No matter how hard we look, we can’t find it.
“A silly goose, on apple juice, refreshed herself one day,
And then among her friends so young, she wandered on her way…”Mom can’t recall the rest, can you help?
Kit Goodwin
If anyone can help with this song, please comment below.
Thanks in advance!
Mama Lisa

Sorry, my mother sang it to me in my preschool years and I remember the same amount your mom does. I’m 74.

Psychapoo – Dennis Lee
Psychapoo,
The silly goose,
Brushed his teeth
With apple juice.
Psychapoo,
The melon-head,
Rode his bicycle
In bed.
His mother said,
“Sit down and eat!”
He swallowed the plate
And left the meat.
His father asked him,
“Can’t you hear?”
He had a carrot
In his ear.
He met a dog
And shook its tail,
Took a bath
And caught a whale,
Put it in his
Piggy bank,
Said, “I think I’ll
Call it Frank.”
His brother asked him,
“Can’t you see?”
He drank his hair
And combed his tea.
He took a trip
To Newfoundland,
Walking on water
And swimming on land
And every time
He heard a shout,
He took his pencil
And rubbed it out.
It isn’t me,
It isn’t you,
It’s nutty, mutty
Psychapoo.
