See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Diarrhea Song for consensus on having this kind of thing. Brian G. Crawford 19:10, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
Brian, there is a lot more printed information about Greasy, Grimy, Gopher Guts than there is on The Diarrhea Song. I will expand this "Gopher Guts" article with many more references when I have the time. John Mehlberg 15:22, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
How about writing up a basic framework for the lyrics, and then alternates for each line? I'm sure there are many possible alternatives for each line of the song. For instance, I've always heard "And me without a spoon" as the refrain. --71.125.9.87 21:21, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Different Version
I know that throughout the US and other contries who share this song have different versions. Here is the one that I grew up knowing.
Miles and miles of greasy, grimy gopher guts, Mutilated monkey meat, Dirty, little birdy feet, Miles and miles of greasy, grimy gopher guts, And I forgot my spoon!!!! 158.35.225.230 13:54, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Version by Mika Seeger
The lyrics depicting how Seeger performed the piece are incorrect. The current lyrics depict how Bloo in the Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends plays a trick on Cheese. Suggest correcting especially the end part. B.H. June 26, 2007
It IS Mika Seeger (Pete Seeger's daughter) and not Mike Seeger- see external links.Pustelnik (talk) 02:19, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
