Butchered Lullabies

Recently I was out walking with my god son A. We were strolling along holding hands and just mucking around (as you do when walking with a 3 year old boy). To kill a little time during the walk I asked A if he knew Twinkle Twinkle little star. He sang the song to me - it was perfect. So I asked him if he knew Humpty Dumpty. I guess the attention span of a 3 year old isn't that great - and A must have started to get bored with the songs because he started to improvise. It was obvious that he knew the song and the right words as he used one substitute word here and there throughout - never missing the rhythm or rhyme of the song. The substitute word that the used was poo.

As a 3 year old boy he thought this was all rather funny and we continued walking with me naming a song and him singing it perfectly - but substituting more and more of the words with the word poo. So it went something like this.....

Baa Baa Black Poo
Have you any Poo
Yes poo, yes poo,
3 bags of poo.
One for the poo,
Poo poo poo
one for the poo who lived down the poo.

I must confess that I butcher some of the lullabies and songs that I sing to L at night when I am putting him to sleep. I don't use the word poo but I do change the words slightly to make them more relevant to us. Does anyone else do this? If yes - what lullabies/songs do you change the words to and how do you change them?

I will leave you now with the one song that I sing to L every night without fail. I would like to apologise to anyone that is religious and finds my version of this song offensive. It is not meant to be anything other then personal to me and my little boy.

Cheers,
S.

Away in a manger,
No crib for a bed,
My little baby L,
Lay down his sweet head.

The stars in the night sky,
Look down where he lay,
My little boy L,
Asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing,
My baby awakes,
My little boy L,
No crying he makes.

I love you baby L,
In each and every way,
For now and forever,
I will love you always.
