I betcha I can make a rhyme out of anybody's name

The first letter of the name I treat it like it wasn't there

But a B or an F or an M will appear

And then I say bo add a B then I say the name

And Bonana fanna and a fo

Then I say the name again with an F very plain

And a fee fy and a mo

And then I say the name again with an M this time

And there isn't any name that I can't rhyme

Arnold

Arnold Arnold bo Barnold Bonana fanna fo Farnold

But if the first two letters are ever the same

I drop them both and say the name like

Bob Bob that's B's Bo ob

For Fred Fred drop the F's Fo red

For Mary Mary drop the M's Mo ary

That's the only rule that is contrary
