Baby Bumblebee

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
(Cup hands together as if holding bee)

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Ouch! It stung me!
(Shake hands as if just stung)

I'm squishing up the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
('Squish' bee between palms of hands)

I'm squishing up a baby bumblebee,
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Ooh! It's yucky!
(Open up hands to look at 'mess')

I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
(Wipe hands off on shirt)

I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Now my mommy won't be mad at me!
(Hold hands up)

IANBU this is surely not an example to set to children to whom do I address my complaint?

Lol I remember singing this one and the Maggie Thatcher one, lots of hand squishing going on! Personally don't mind nursery rhymes encouraging kids to squash pests, saves me the trouble of doing it myself! Now if only there was a song about squashing spiders I could teach dd and her friends and I'd be sorted!

No living thing should hurt including animals and plants.. what do you guys eat?? Confused

lljkk · 21/08/2017 18:08

Jains can only eat milk products, seeds (nuts), fruit & leaves, basically. (hth)

I'm a little girly guide dressed in blue
These are the actions I must do
Bow to the king, curtesy to the queen
Show my knickers to the football team!

And we think it's just girls today growing up all sexualised...!

Just remembered this one:

Scooby Dooby Doo
Where are you?
He's upside down in the ladies loo
when you pull the chain
he will go to Spain
Riding on a chocolate aeroplane

a lot of people really think goon around squishing insects is absolutely nothing

It is nothing, to most people. Bees need to be protected, but we don't go around crying because someone stepped on an ant or squished a spider.

@Teatowelfairy
Ours was slightly different:

I went to a Chinese chip shop
To buy a loaf of bread bread bread
He wrapped it up in a paper bag
And this is what he said said said

My... name... is....
Cinderella
Dressed in yeller
Went upstairs to kiss 'er fella
By mistake
She kissed a snake
Poor ol' Cinderella!

I love all these songs! I used to sing some of them to DS when he was tiny and screaming all night. I don't think it helped with the screaming but it kept me marginally saner Grin

Teatowelfairy · 22/08/2017 00:35

I've been humming these all day, then suddenly finding myself singing aloud random lines, much to the amusement of DC's. Grin
They're like one of them really annoying songs, you know the type that gets stuck in your head on repeat, over and over, but loads more fun!

mcpound · 22/08/2017 01:03

When Susie was a teenager a teenager she was
She went Ooh ahh I lost my bra
I've left my knickers in my boyfriend's car......
Or something like that anyway!?! There's loads of verses but that's the only one I can remember Grin

Distractotron · 22/08/2017 06:05

All the girls in Spain
Throw their knickers down the drain
All the boys in France
Do the willy wobble dance
Oh! Nelly put your belly close to me
Oh! Nelly put your belly close to me

Oh you'll never get to heaven
On a boy scout's knee
Cos you never know
Where his hands might be

Oh you'll never get to heaven
In Madge(guide leader)'s bra
Cos Madge's bra
Stretches too far

...and lots of racist and absolutely obscene jokes, one in particular featuring a girl called 'Fuckerada'. I was 10. I had a very knowledgable best friend. God knows where she got her jokes from!
I sing the baby bumble bee song to the kids. They haven't been tempted to squish any bees up yet but we all enjoy the bit where you have to sick up the baby bumble bee Grin

Distractotron · 22/08/2017 06:07

When Susie was a teenager
A teenager Susie was, she went;
Miss! Miss! I want a kiss!
I don't know where my boyfriend is!

The 12yr old asked me to tell him a joke the other day, so I told him the one about the nun in the bath and the blind man. He looked at me like Confused

Very very wrong - they sing it and do what it says bloody wrong

BringOnTheScience · 22/08/2017 18:46

Oh dear @distractotron 's post has reminded me of a really bad longer version of one of hers! Our version was ...

Did you know that
The girls in Spain
Wash their knickers in champagne
And the girls in France
Do the hula hula dance
And the dance that they do
Is enough to kill a Jew
And the Jew that they kill
Is enough to take a pill
And the pill that they take
Is enough to fry a snake
And the snake that they fry
Is enough to tell a lie
And the lie that they tell
Is that n×××××s go to hell
H-E-double-ell HELL.

oh deary deary me Blush Sad

If you think that's bad OP I suggest you do not read The Tale of Titty Mouse and Tatty Mouse. You might never recover
