Jeanie, you don't sound so old. Anyway one of the advantages of age is that you're not expected to shut up. Getting people to listen gets to be a problem though.
The illustrations for this song, here in Australia, were in the ABC songbook that was issued to schools in the 1970s as I remember. It showed men moving a piano. They seemed to think that children wouldn't be interested in music unless it came packaged in brightly coloured books. As a child myself it was the sound of songs and the images they produced in my mind that gave me a love of songs. Now I'm really sounding like an old crank! Joy
