Pun with "effervescent" and "fiddlesticks"

Question

I read a pun in a children's joke book "Effervescent enough covers on your bed, your fiddlestick out." I know that "fiddlestick out" is "feet will stick out", but what is the "effervescent" punning on?

This book is obviously only suitable for groan-ups. – Erik Kowal Mar 01 '15 at 03:31 — Erik Kowal, Mar 01 '15 at 03:31
