She put the lime in the coconut, and drank them both up

Here’s a really cute picture of a tequila lime kitty that goes nicely with the well-known Harry Nilsson song:
Coconut lyrics from the album Nilsson Schmilsson
by Harry Nilsson
Brother bought a coconut, he bought it for a dime
His sister had another one, she paid it for the lime
She put the lime in the coconut, she drank ‘em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up, and said
Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache
Now let me get this straight
Put the lime in the coconut, you drank ‘em both up (3x)
Put the lime in the coconut, you called your doctor, woke him up, and said
Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache, I said
Doctor, ain’t there nothin’ I can take, I said
Doctor, to relieve this bellyache
You put the lime in the coconut, you drink ‘em both together
Put the lime in the coconut, then you feel better
Put the lime in the coconut, drink ‘em both up
Put the lime in the coconut, and call me in the morning

ramblingbob says in all my rambles i have never saw the Muppets do this. Was you with me the time I went to the mesume downtown and they had the Muppets on display? My fuzzy memory about that time kinda blurs. I took so many diffrent kids there over the years.
