When Noddy drove off in his car,
before he had got very far,
he met a green imp,
before he had got very far,
he met a green imp,
'Oh voice of Spring of Youth
hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

he met a green imp,
Who walked with a limp
And whose face did sport a huge scar.

As a rock rolled down the hill,
Bill leapt to the side,
Protecting his bride.
So neither one went for a spill.
Sorry for doing all three lines but it had been a few days and once I started I could not resist.
