Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Oh, I was born... (Lunatic's Lullaby)
Here are most of the words - i remembered most of it, but found additional words from other sources. good luck.


I'm up here in the bug house. My brain is in a rut.
My keeper says I'm crazy, but he is off his nut.
I'm just as sane as you are, and I can prove it too:
For when you hear my lullaby, you'll know I'm not cuckoo.

A pig or cow can bark meow but a goldfish likes to sing.
I saw a frog swim up a log, but he fell and broke his wing.
I know that camels sail the sea, that we get honey from a flea,
That ev'ry horse can climb a tree on the road to Mandalay. CHORUS

Oh, I was born one night, one morn when the whistle went "Toot, Toot."
You can bake a steak or fry a cake when the mudpies are in bloom.
Does Six and six make nine And ice grow on a vine. (This is oral memory.)
Is ole Black Joe's an Eskimo in the good ole summertime.

So, loopty-loop through your noodle soup just to give your socks a shine.
I'm guilty judge, I ate the fudge. three cheers for Auld Lang Syne.
I can not tell a lie, I ate an apple pie.
It's on a tree, beneath the sea above the bright blue sky.

If Easter eggs, don't wash their legs their children will have ducks.
I'd rather buy, a lemon pie for forty-seven bucks.
Way down in Patagonia They jump into the foamia
But that is all baloney-a. Paterowski blow your horn "Toot, Toot " !
