Having two little girls, I get the opportunity to tell a lot of stories and make up a lot of songs. A few of them I am particularly happy with and have decided to start sharing.
As a note, I view sing-along songs as somewhat malleable in their timing. Sometimes I don't strictly adhere to the number of syllables. To help with that problem, I will put the lyrics from the base song first and the number of syllables at the beginning of each line.
ORIGINAL SONG: Do your ears hang low?
5 Do your ears hang low?
7 Do they wabble to and fro?
7 Can you tie them in a knot?
7 Can you tie them in a bow?
8 Can you throw them o'r (over) your shoulder
8 like a continental soldier?
5 Do your ears hang low?
MY VERSION: Does your diaper hang low?
6 Does your diaper hang low?
8 Does it wiggle when you waddle?
7 Have you smelt it for a while?
7 Can you smell it for a mile?
7 Is it hanging by your knees
7 begging someone change me please?
6 Does your diaper hang low?
