Hey diddle diddle,
     The cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped
     over the moon;
The little dog laughed
     to see such sport,
And the dish ran
     away with the spoon

 


In olden days in England, it was common to call people by silly nicknames. The queen Elizabeth was called the cat because she played with her cabinet as if they were mice. The cow, the moon and her dog were a part of the fun in court ! Her serving lady was termed as the dish and the royal taster was called the spoon !.. They had both eloped but were later captured and confined to the tower of London ! hehe !…
