I thought I heard A chicken sneeze.
Sing Polly wolly doodle all the day.
What were they doing behind the barn? On their knees? Perhaps it's my slashy leanings but my mind goes instantly into the gutter.
Children's music is quite fascinating actually. So many phrases long lost to everyday conversation. And many are quite violent too (ie Three Blind Mice). Although there are 'clean' versions now available. They just sound silly to me.
I had an idea, long times ago, to publish a book of skipping songs from across Canada. I really should follow through on these impulses.
