For the record, nursery rhymes are gruesome
Do parents honestly say these anymore?
Ding, Dong, Dell
Ding, dong, dell,
Pussy’s in the well.
Who put her in?
Little Johnny Thin.
Who pulled her out?
Little Tommy Stout.
What a naughty boy was that,
To try to drown poor pussy cat,
Who never did him any harm,
And killed the mice in his father’s barn.
Goosey Goosey Gander
Goosey, goosey gander,
Whither shall I wander?
Upstairs and downstairs
And in my lady’s chamber.
There I met an old man
Who would not say his prayers;
So I took him by his left leg
And threw him down the stairs.
Three Blind Mice
Three blind mice, three blind mice.
See how they run! See how they run!
They all ran after a farmer’s wife,
Who cut off their tails with a carving knife.
Did you ever see such a thing in your life,
As three blind mice?
