hush lil baby forget what you heard,
just shut your mouth and dont say a word.

please lil baby don\'t fear the dream,
nobody\'s ever what they seem.

soon lil baby the pain will pass,
flush it all away with a small shot glass.

oh lil baby please don\'t choke,
just turn your head away from the smoke.

dear lil child keep your spark,
for you never know what hides in the dark.

stupid lil child don\'t give up hope,
step off that chair and give me the rope.

silly lil man gave away your heart,
she took it in her hands and tore it apart.

poor lil baby why do you frown?
we both know she didn\'t really drown.

prolly not a proper section for it.. but anyways.

this is obviously inspired by the famous nursery rhyme/lullaby thingymajig that most mothers tend to sing to their wee ones i think.

of course, i always found it to be a bit disturbing... so, i decided i wanted to do my own rendition of it. and this is what came out.

enjoy it if ya can, and comment as you please.

It seemed scattered to me in some regards, but I really like it over all. Great job with this.

i liek this, but it jumps alot. there';sa part, "silly lil man gave away your heart,
she took it in her hands and tore it apart." a man took it away, and a woman ripped it? huh, but over all a good poem. i sang it to my mother and she looked at me and started to cry. :D (Big Grin) YaY! i like it even more now!
