itsy bitsy spider


I am at awe at myself. The shy me, who seldom sing in public, is now daring enough to hum a lullaby to pacify my crying precious tomato after she got her jab at the clinic.

My tomato loves nursery rhymes. But I am constantly mocked by Oink for only knowing how to sing the important verses of all the rhymes and know none completely.

HEY! what to do?I don't even go find lyrics of popular songs.  And I don't sing much. But for Tomato, I actually put some effort to look for the lyrics.

Before that, I can only sing,

Twinkle twinkle little star, 
how I wonder what you are,
like a diamond in the sky
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA..

ya, that's how it is, I use LA LA LA for parts I don't know..AHAHA

the actual lyric for Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is:

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!


And that day, while in shower, I mix up between 2 Chinese nursery rhymes (小老鼠 & 三轮车) .

I sang...

小老鼠 跑得快
上面坐个老太太

And it was followed by Oink's laughter. He said "POOR TOMATO! your mummy don't even know how to sing nursery rhymes properly! How could a small mouse carry a granny!(WAHAHAHAHA)"

 'x'!!! (&^$!@^!$%^#!@!)

ANYWAY.....

Tomato's favouritest song now is Itsy Bitsy Spider. And even that I don't know the complete lyric.

I sang..

Itsy Bitsy spider...
NA NA NA NA NA NA 'x'

The actual lyric is..


Itsy Bitsy spider climbing up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
Now Itsy Bitsy spider went up the spout again!

I am delighted to know the whole lyric now. BUT there's a problem, I don't know how to sing the last half  'x' AHHAHAHA. So now I have to find the song!

But Tomato doesn't seem to care whether if I can sing the whole thing correctly or not. She is still happy and giggles with the NA NA NA NA NA 'x'..awwww...such an angel right?
