Confess the lyrics of made-up songs you sing to your DC!

I have millions. When DS2 is about to stick his hand down the loo/eat caterpillars, the song goes:

"Dirty and dangerous, dangerous and dirty;
If you carry on like this you won't live to see 30."

When I'm about to change his nappy, there's a haunting melody that carries the evocative lyric: "I'm gonna do your bum, I'm going do your buummm. I'm gonna do your bum bum bum, I'm gonna do that naughty bum."

After his bath, he endures enjoys the rousing song with moving lines like, "Fresh and clean, fresh and clean, fit to be seen on a magazine/by the Queen".

Is my poor son the only baby to be subjected daily to such outpourings of rubbish?

they smell so sweet
who do they belong to

Recently I've been adapting the "Josie Jump is my name... jump up a little higher" song from Balamory for DD at nappy change time:

[DD's name (which fortunately scans)] is my name
Doing big poos is my game
I love to fill my nappy
It really is quite fun
And when my mummy changes it
I fill another one

Everybody...

Poo, poo a little harder
Fill that nappy!

Poo, poo a little harder
Make a smell!

[return to start and repeat until nappy change completed]

Ahem.

Ah. I have two.

Baby popkin, baby popkin, your mummy really loves you. Baby popkin, baby popkin, yes she really does. (D'ya see the brilliance? You can carry on ad infinitum AND nauseam, citing all the members of your family/ dh's family/ friends, neighbours etc etc)

And (to the Spiderman tune)
babykins, babykins
does whatever a babykins does.
Smiles a lot
dribbles too
produces snot
and poo too.
watch ou-u-u-tt,
here comes babykins.

DS sings this when he brushes his teeth:
"Brusha brusha brusha - like you live in Russia - doo a poo and flusha - then you drink some crusha" (?!)

And I sing to DD to the tune of the hymn Sing Hosanah (?again!) "Is there pooh in your pants, are you stinky? Is there pooh in your pants [DD's name]? is there pooh in your pants are you stinky? Oh we'd better change your nap-ppy! Change your nappy! Change your nappy! Change your nappy it's a stinky pooh! etc etc etc etc

pooping on the run
purging, happy tum
pooping like a number 0ne

Do Do Do
The nudey nasty
Put your knickers on the floor
Show us your tum
And wiggle your bare bum
Then you won't be wearing clothes any more.

DS2 is the very bestest baby in the land
And all the other mummies sadly have to understand
There just is not another one that's half as nice as him
Be they sort or tall, or black or white
Or gray or fat or thin

"There's a worm at the bottom of the garden, and his name is Bum Bum Woo,
There's a worm at the bottom of the garden,
And all he does is poo,
He poos all night,
He poos all day,
The people all around him say...
What a very smelly worm!"

I love this thread

To the tune of 'Nellie the Elephant'...

"[DD] the astronaut packed her things
And said goodbye to the earthlings
Off she went with a trumpety blast
Blast, blast, blast
[DD] the astronaut packed her things
And said goodbye to the earthlings
Off she went with a trumpety blast
Blast, blast, blast

The Head of the Aliens called from
Far, far away,
They met one night
By the pale moonlight
Underneath the Milky Way

[DD] the astronaut packed her things
And said goodbye to the earthlings
Off she went with a trumpety blast
Blast, blast, blast"

We have the banana song, which with hindsight wasn't such a good idea...

bananas, bananas, bananas,
they're very good for you,
bananas, bananas, bananas,
they make you fart and poo

often sung loudly in supermarkets

hey, why isn't there a St Patricks Day smiley?

Brush, brush, brush your teeth
Brush them nice and clean
Brush them til they're shiny white
Not a manky green!

And there's about 97 verses of a lullaby that starts

Rock, rock, rockety rock
Rock my little guy
Rock, rock, rockety rock
Close your beautiful eyes

Am totally stealing the Banana song though

To be sung to the tune of Doodle Doo

Ruby Roo did a poo

Bella boo did one too

To the tune of Edelweiss (from The Sound of Music):

Morning Poo, Morning Poo,
Every morning you greet me!
Morning Poo, Morning Poo,
Every morning you meet me!
Squishy and squashy and warm and brown,
Warm and brown and smell-y!
Morning Poo, Morning Poo,
Squeezed one out in my nappy!

.........

And we're very strict about it - won't catch any of us singing it to an afternoon poo, oh no.
