Announcer's voice: Ladies and gentlemen and sardines, Miss Ethel Mermaid!
I get no kick out of A
B, C and D are just letters to me
And E makes me endlessly blue
But I get a kick (she kicks a fish with her tail, as she does in each verse)
Out of U
I get no fun from an F
G, H and I merely cause me to sigh
And J really makes me boo-hoo
But I get a kick
Out of U
K, L, M, N
O, P, Q, R, S
Are nothing once you've seen them
'Though T and V don't appeal to me
I'm nuts for what's between them
W gives me no thrill
X, Y and Z are not my cup of tea
They just tell me the alphabet's through
But I get a kick
Out of U
All the fish: K, L, M, N
O, P, Q, R, S
Are nothing once you've seen them
Solo Fish: 'Though T and V don't appeal to her
She's nuts for what's between them
Ethel: W gives me no thrill
X, Y and Z are not my cup of tea
They just tell me the alphabet's through
But I get a kick
A really big kick
I get a kick
Out of U
