I heard this lovely song while we were outside hanging and

detangling Christmas lights. I think the inspiration was a

combination of 3 Blind Mice and Hickory Dickory Dock:

Hickory hickory dock
the mouse strike the clock
the mouse went down.... hickory hickory dock.

Hickory hickory dock
the mouse strike one
the mouse ran down.......hickory hickory dock

Hickory hickory dock
3 mice......strike the clock
hickory hickory dock

Hickory hickory dock
The mouse strike.....nuffing....

Then, there was also the sing and spell your numbers song:

O-N-E.... that spells one,
O-N-E.... that spells one,
O-N-E....that spells one,
'One' that's what that speeeelllllllssssssssss.

2-N-E that spells two
(I can see him thinking...
hmmm that's not quite right
),

2 N-W, that spells two......

(hmmm that's not it either....)

..... I have to practice my number dance.

And, last but not least, the Bedtime Kitten Chant:

Three little kittens, sitting in a tree...
one fell off and broke his head.

Two little kit-tens, wanted to play....
One fell off aannnndddd...........licked a BOWL!!

One little kit-tens, wanted to play....
He went off and....played in a sand...box.

Little, little kittens, Lit-TLE KIT-TENS
....zero little kittens.....they did Nuffing!!


That's a weird song, right Mom?
