Iliff-King phrasebook Excessively fidgety
Sit still! Don’t be so fidgety-fidge!
From the start of the music hall song I live in Trafalgar Square (CW Murphy 1902):

I’m all of a fidgety-fidge
My last digs were on the Embankment
Third seat from Waterloo Bridge
Mum – 1950s
Pauline Iliff (Dixon) – mother of Mark, JM, G & Bel
Sometimes it was fidgety-fil (or -Phil?)
