Wee Sing in Sillyville

(from an old xanga post dated January 18, 2005)

"We Sing Silly Songs" was a significant chunk of my childhood &, subsequently, the foundation of my ability to create a rhyme on a dime & memorize songs.

"Roll over, roll over" ... so they all rolled over and one fell out there were four in the bed and the little one said "roll over, roll over" so they all rolled over and one fell out, there were three in the bed and the little one said "roll over, roll over" so they all rolled over and one fell out, there were two in the bed....

soundtrack of my life

I found this on my old xanga account. It dates back to January 20, 2006. I was 18 years old & in my first year of college, and apparently really into Blonde Redhead, the Books, Basement Jaxx and Blue States at the time.
