Wake up! You grumpy pile of grouse!
Or I'll throw you right on out of the house I'll grab your toes and toss you out You'll wake up with a startled shout And hit the ground and bounce along And still be hearing me sing this song Get up! Get up! Get up!

Usually while poking his butt and bouncing him under the covers.

Okay, that's pretty damned funny.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

The only thing I'm known to sing on a semi-regular basis to small children is the song Holly Hunter sings in Raising Arizona.

On rare occasions, I'll branch out to Moonshadow, but I generally try to avoid the whole singing bit.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

No one in my family is a morning person, so there was never singing in the morning. Mostly mumbling.

Our wings are not tired

Elton John also has a "One."

Actually, I think it might be "The One."

Oooh! And that's a creepy, old-timey "babies die a lot when medicine sucks" song, isn't it? I know there's a lot of death in that song, even though it's a VERY pretty tune.

....and now I'm GLAD nobody sang in my house in the morning!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Plei, weren't you scheduled for something important today? Or did I miss something or lose track of days?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

The Aimee Mann "One" is a cover, btw. Originally by Three Dog Night, Written by Nilsson.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Oh, I'm having wicked flashbacks to summer camp, where we sang songs at Morning Flagpole and then again at breakfast. I'm sure at one point I knew the words to all of them, since I was a counselor for a couple of years and led more singalongs than I could possibly count...

Also earwormed with "One is the loneliest number"--wasn't that originally by Harry Nilsson? edit: x-post, of course!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Plei, weren't you scheduled for something important today?

I was just wondering the same thing.
