Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Lunatic's Lullaby 'Oh, I was born one...'
My mom taught me a version of this song, been singing it my whole life.

I'm up here in this nut house, my mind is in a rut.
My friends all think I'm crazy, but they're just off their rocks.
I'm just as sane as you are, and I can prove it too.
Just listen to my lullaby to prove I'm not coo coo.
Ohhh I was born one night one morn when a whistle said boom boom.
I baked a snake and fried a cake when the mud pies were in bloom.
If six and six is nine, the mud is full of wine.
Old blue Joe the Eskimo in the good ole summer tiiime.
Well, if easter eggs don't wash their legs their children will have ducks (quack)
I'd rather have a lemon drop then fifty seven bucks.
I'm up here in the aflinio drinking from the asinio and this is all bolognio, palaruski is NY name (TOOT TOOT)

Most of my family knows this version of the song, I sing it randomly and plan on teaching it to my kiddos
