Carving knife their cut off tails

How’s it go?
You do the Pokie Hokie
and you spin round and round

It’s pouring -well if there are only a few drops then it is definitely not pouring
The old man is snoring - not he is not, he might be snorting, between snifters, but definitely not snoring
He went to bed - no he did not. He sat up all night drinking
He bumped his head - no he did not. That was his missus giving him a clip around the ears
He couldn’t get up in the morning - the only part of this ditty that is true. Too many snifters between snorts.
