The House Is Alive... With The Sounds Of Music...

Yes, I've been carolling snippets of badly rewritten tunes to Am for quite some time. Some top hits include!
.
(Note- to the tune if "Hi-Ho; "Ya-yo" is Am's pronunciation for Cheerio.)
.
Ya-yo, Ya-yo,
It's time for brekky I know.
We chew our food, it tastes real good,
Ya-yo, Ya-yo.
.
.
(Note - to the tune of "Up Where We Belong", in response to frequent requests of "uppie!")
.
Mom lifts us up where we belong.
Where short are tall,
Little aren't so small.
Mom makes us big when we are wee.
She lifts us up! So we can see!
.
.
(Note - to the tune of "Isn't She Lovely", during a nap on the road one day.)
.
Isn't she sleeping.
Isn't she snoring away.
Isn't she drooling
All over her carseat.
She's totally knocked out, I guess a that a day
Out on the beach will do that.

.
.
(Note - to the tune if Funicula, Funiculi, which, interestingly, was written to commemorate the opening of the first funicular on Mount Vesuvius.)
.
Broccoli, broccolah,
Broccoliiiiiiiiiii, broccola-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
.
.
(I can't take credit for this one. The man sings it to Amoryn when it's nasty diaper-change time. And it's not really a rewrite, it's just the Imperial March.)
.
Bum, bum, bum, bum-bum bum, bum bum-bum bum.
Bum! Bum! Bum! Bum! Bum, Bum-Bum-Bum,
Bum bum, bum-bum, bum,
Bum, BUM, BUM.
.
.
I'll let you know of others as they appear.
