This came to mind....
Thanks to a conversation with SWMBO during Henry's feeding time I found out she had no knowledge of Pete Seeger
I was singing 'Little Boxes' to the boy and SWMBO asked me if I were making songs up again, and what did 'ticky-tacky' mean.
Now I have been known to make up songs, normally to music that already exists: I am especially fond of the 'Splody Pooh' song, which is sung to the music from the old Robin Hood TV show....if you think about it a bit revelation will slowly dawn.
But for your entertainment I present Pete Seeger:
Because it's worth knowing.
