After reading the thread "while the organ peeled potatoes" I was reminded of another silly song. I particularly like the line "we feed the baby garlic so we can find him in the dark". There must be lots of these silly nonsense songs out there.

THE HORSES RUN AROUND

The horses run around, their feet are on the ground,
Oh, who will wind the clock while I'm away, away,
Go get the axe, there's a hair on baby's chest;
Oh, a boy's best friend is his mother, his mother.

While looking out the window, a second story window,
I slipped and sprained my eyebrow on the pavement, the pavement,
Go get the Listerine, sister has a beau,
Who cut the sleeves off father's vest, his vest.

A-peeking through the knothole, in grandpa's wooden leg,
Oh, who has built the shore so near the ocean, the ocean,
Go get the alcohol, Willy wants a drink,
For grandma's false teeth will soon fit baby, fit baby.

While walking in the moonlight, the bright and sunny moonlight,
She kissed me in the eye with a tomato, tomato,
We feed the baby garlic so we can find him in the dark;
An onion is a husky vegetable, a table.

She spanked him with a shingle, and made his panties tingle,
Because he socked his little baby brother, his brother,
A snake's belt slips, because he has no hips,
And he wears a necktie around his middle, his middle.
