Mr. Rabbit

They used to make us sing that song in 3rd grade music class.

Mr. Rabbit, Mr. Rabbit, your coat's mighty red.
"Yes indeed I'm almost dead"
Every little soul must shine shine shine
Every little soul must shine shine shine

As I think about it, I have only one question.

WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF SONG IS THIS TO FOIST UPON THIRD GRADERS? JESUS CHRIST!

Ring-a-round the rosies,
A pocket full of posies,
Ashes! Ashes!
We all fall down

Rock-a-Bye Baby

Rock-a-bye baby, in the treetop
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come baby, cradle and all

Whoever thought that would help one sleep well?
