Rock-a-bye
This song is really ridiculously funny.
Rock-a-Bye Baby, in the tree top
When the wind blows, the cradle will rock.
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall.
And down will come baby, the cradle and all...
"Bough" is a main branch of a tree...
This lullaby has a good rhythm to make children to sleep.
However, it really is a scary story actually, that the baby actually get injured by the fall? Or worse still, may be crushed by the cradle!
I wonder how come we are taught this as a lullaby?

My children didn't really know the implications of this song. However, when both Eve and I sang (because Josh requested for it), we just didn't want to carry on the last line... It's kinda wrong.
And yes, we will change to another song...
