    Good idea, but I think the “as big as your head” one should be “some” ;)

    Also, this is a real song, not just on the Lion King :B

    I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts
    There they are a-standing in a row
    Big ones, small ones, some as big as your head
    Give it a twist, a flick of the wrist,
    and that’s what the showman said

    (repeat over and over while riding Disney World’s Space Mountain)

  2. Urm. Monty Python’s version is better…

  3. Monty Python’s was better.

  4. Randy says:

    It predates Python, too… in fact, I suspect it was first sung by Groucho Marx.

  5. Usoki says:

    Either way…most people don’t actually know the real version of the song, thanks to that part of the Lion King.

  6. Trey says:

    Not Monty Python. Though it wasn’t originally by Merv Griffin like I thought, either, so I’m glad I checked:

    and Ringo sings it in Magical Mystery Tour too – that’s my favourite.

  8. Mike says:

    Wouldn’t that technically be 3 lovely bunches of coconuts?

  9. flamesbladeflcl says:
