I never made one up. I sang all kind of obnoxious songs made up by others though. |

I came up with two songs that I am aware of. One was about teachers, and I can't remember anything about it apart from the fact that when I was singing it, it could be heard outside the house. The other was about my Uncle Bill, and about how he drank lots of beer. (Which he did, by the way.) My new single will be about frogs and the way they hop with their legs. |

The first song I ever wrote was about Superman. I was seven but my budding genius was already apparent... He came from a planet far, far away
That was gonna blow up the very next day.
His daddy put him in a spaceship, set him in flight,
He said, "Have a nice trip and don't forget to write."
They call him Superman... ("Look! Up in the sky")
Superman... ("It's a bird! It's a plane!")
Superman... ("It's Superman!")
Superman...You always remember your first time.  |

Yes, but I can't remember. |

It was a song about my dachshund, Carrie. I don't know WHY as a child I called her "Rio", but I'd always sing the "Rio Song" to her. |

It was in one of my deeply philosophical moments, after finding a spider on the gate while I waited for a ride to orchestra rehearsal:
So many spiders in so many places
So many stories we don't want to show
So many spiders in so many places
So many stories we don't want to know
Don't want to know
Where the spiders may go
Don't want to show
What the spiders may know.
I guess I must have had some deep dark secret. I must have been 9 because I even wrote it out in musical notation! |

As a child? I still do this...doesn't everyone? Mostly I make up my own words to existing songs. A college roommate and I roughly translated Little Bunny Foofoo into Spanish, and I still remember that. I don't remember any that I made up myself as a child. |

Reading this again, I remembered how I got a couple of commercial jingles twisted together. My version went like this:
Up in the valley of the Jolly Green Giant
Lived a guy they called the Little Green Sprout
So, ask any mermaid you happen to see,
What's the best tuna?
Ho Ho Ho
Chicken of the sea.
(the Ho Ho Ho part is like the Jolly Green Giant - I'd lower my voice as far as I could to sing it!). |

Brace Face (sung to the tune of 80's pop song "Fish Heads")Brace face. Brace Face. Shiny metal brace face. Brace face, brace face. Be one fun. Be one fun. Be one fun, fun, fun. Yeah. Also we had one that I kind of remember about finding a bracket in the football field (I liked braces on teeth as a child). How about "Mozerella. Pepperoni. Any way you please. Don't forget the mushrooms on.......mostly cheddar cheese!!" |

Did anyone else ever sing a song as a child called 'Found a peanut'? (to the tune of the song "Clementine") Found a peanut, found a peanut, found a peanut just now,
Just now I found a peanut, found a peanut, just now,
It was rotten, it was rotten, it was rooootten just now
Just now, it was rotten, it was rotten just now
Ate it anyway, ate it anyway, ate it annnnnyway just now, etc, etc...
(got sick, called the dr., said I'd be okay, died anyway, went to heaven, kicked an angel, went the other way, shoveled coal)<--all sung in the same manner... |

natsim: cool.. I always wondered where that song came from. |

What about (to the same tune as Comet):
Hitler has only got one ball,
the other is on the kitchen wall...
I can't believe that an Australian child growing up in the 70s was still singing WWII songs... |

When I was 3 and my sister was 5, I remember singing this to my pregnant mom: Fatty, fatty, two by four
Can't fit through the kitchen door. We thought that was soo funny... my dad must have put us up to it. |
