[G] Why does the Winkle always turn to the right
[D] turn to the right, [G] turn to the right,
and why does the Winkle going upstairs at night,
[A] put his little nightdress on and [D] turn to the right.
[C] Tail first he [G] toddles off to bed
with his [A] door shut tight down [D] on his head.
[G] Why does the Winkle always turn to the left,
when [D] he comes down to breakfast in the [C] mor-[G]ning.

[G] As the lion build his [D] lair out in the [G] jungle oh,
Birdies build their [D] nest up in the [G] trees.
But the Winkle always [D] builds his little [G] bungalow,
in a [A] puddle at the bottom of the [D] sea.
The reason for this scientists [G] can never tell,
what [A] makes the Winkle go inside his [D] Winkle [D7] shell.

[G] Why does the Winkle always turn to the right
[D] turn to the right, [G] turn to the right,
and why does the Winkle going upstairs at night,
[A] put his little nightdress on and [D] turn to the right.
[C] Tail first he [G] toddles off to bed
with his [A] door shut tight down [D] on his head.
[G] Why does the Winkle always turn to the left,
when [D] he comes down to breakfast in the [C] mor-[G]ning.
{eoc}
[G] Now the moral of the [D] story is quite [G] obvious,
if the [D] Winkle he turned left then as sure as [G] sin.
[D] when you [G] try to get him [D] out with your [G] Winkle pin,
your pin [A] wouldn't get him out, you’d screw him in.
[C] And nature that put whiskers on the [G] Walruses,
[A] makes one way streets for Winkles [D] and the chorus is:-
{soc}
[G] Why does the Winkle always turn to the right
[D] turn to the right, [G] turn to the right,
and why does the Winkle going upstairs at night,
[A] put his little nightdress on and [D] turn to the right.
[C] Tail first he [G] toddles off to bed
with his [A] door shut tight down [D] on his head.
[G] Why does the Winkle always turn to the left,
when [D] he comes down to breakfast in the [C] mor-[G]ning.
