Ta dida da,
Said the oyster to the pig.
Ta dida da,
You're getting, ahhh... To be precise,
You're getting quite big.
Ta dida da,
The oyster was told by the pig,
I'll fetch a handsome price.
Think I ought to wear a wig,
Or would that be like gambling with a pair of weighted dice?
Ta dida da,
Yo dida dae,
That's what I saw,
The oyster to the pig say.

Haha, you do not hvae to like everything I write :)

I am glad you commented on this, I think that sometimes poetry just is nonsense. Nursery rhymes, Alice in WOnderland and the like. I think it's a way to let your imagination and heart lead you where it will :)
