Did I miss something, or has no one yet mentioned Bill Cosby's classic routine (from his earlier comedy-LP days) about tonsil removal? That includes a song of sorts: "ICE cream... I'm gonna get ICE cream..."

For general kid-cheering-up, there's the Lou and Peter Berryman song, "It's Better Than That" (about how much better adults have it than kids do!), also recorded by Trout Fishing in America. And then there's just about everything else Trout Fishing in America has recorded for kids!
