I can't believe how intimidating trying to use the online shopping thing is when you're sick.

And how do they not have tins of mandarin slices? Laaaame.
That reminds me, pound cake plus vanilla pudding, plus canned peaches = DELICIOUS.

according to google images:

Pudding:

Except I prefer my pudding without poisonous looking berries on top.
 
what the hell Ashley :lmao: Did you think they just fell off the tree already peeled and segmented? Or did you think the cans grew on the tree! *giggles at the mental image*

That reminds me of that song we sang when we were little.

On top of spagettiiii
All covered with cheeese
I lost my poor meatbaaall
When somebody sneeeezed

It rolled off the taaable
And onto the floooor
And then my poor meatbaaall
Rolled right out the doooor

It rolled out to the gardeeen
And under a buuuush
And then my poor meatbaaall
Was nothing but muuush

I can't remember if there's another verse after that, but I recall it being in a storybook, and there was something about the meatball growing a spaghetti tree... except the picture in the book had a drawing of a tree with cans of canned spaghetti growing on it :lol:
 
Apparently there are three more verses, thank you google:

The mush was as tasty
As tasty could be,
And then the next summer,
It grew into a tree.

The tree was all covered,
All covered with moss,
And on it grew meatballs,
And tomato sauce.

So if you eat spaghetti,
All covered with cheese,
Hold on to your meatball,
Whenever you sneeze.

I thougth they were like maraschino cherries like I said, in that, there was something done to normal oranges in order for them to be referred to as the mandarin variety.
 
:applaud: I never knew there were more versus. Sort of like our national anthem, you kinda think there might be more verses but who really knows :shrug:

What a lot of peope don't realize is that there are five or six verses to "Bringing home a baby bumblebee" :tsk:

And yet some fundies try to make up a religious-themed second verse for Advance Australia Fair that actually isn't in the original! :laugh:
 
googling has found three different versions of the baby bumble bee song :ohmy:

1: (a version I've never heard before)

Oh, I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me
'Cause I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee --
Buzzy, buzzy, buzzy --

(spoken): OOOOH, it bit me!


Oh, I'm bringing home a baby rattlesnake
Won't my mommy shiver and shake
'Cause I'm bringing home a baby rattlesnake --
Rattle, rattle, rattle --

(spoken): OOOOH, it bit me!


Oh, I'm bringing home a baby turtle
Won't my mommy really pop her girdle
'Cause I'm bringing home a baby turtle
Snappy, snappy, snappy --

(spoken): OOOOH, it bit me!


Oh, I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Won't my mommy fall right through the floor
'Cause I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur --
Gobble, gobble, gobble --

(spoken): OOOOH, it ate me!

2: (Half of the version I know)

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,

(Cup hands together as if holding bee)


I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Ouch! It stung me!
(Shake hands as if just stung)

I'm squishing up the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
('Squish' bee between palms of hands)

I'm squishing up a baby bumblebee,
Ooh! It's yucky!
(Open up hands to look at 'mess')


I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
(Wipe hands off on shirt)

I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Now my mommy won't be mad at me!
(Hold hands up to show they are clean)

3: (Closest to the version I know, but Jeez what's up with teh dinosaurs :huh: )

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee
Won't my Mommy be surprised at me

(Cup hands together as if holding bee)

(Pretend to lick bee off hands)


I'm licking up a baby bumblebee
Slurp, slurp, slurp

(Make slurping sounds)


I'm throwing up a baby bumblebee
Won't my Mommy be surprised at me

(Stick tongue out and look 'sick')


I'm throwing up a baby bumblebee
Blech, blech, blech

(Make awful face)


I'm sweeping up a baby bumblebee
Won't my Mommy be surprised at me

('Sweep' bee up with one hand into the other)


I'm sweeping up a baby bumblebee
Swish, swish, swish

('Sweep' bee up with one hand into the other)


I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Won't my Mommy kick me out the door

(Pretend to be carrying heavy dinosaur)


I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Oops, he ate me, I'm no more!






The version I know goes like this:

I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me
I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee
OUCH he stung me

I'm smooshing up my baby bumble bee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me
I'm smooshing up my baby bumble bee

I'm licking up my baby bumblebee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me

I'm mopping up my baby bumblebee
OUCH! *rubs bottom* momma wasn't proud of me :sad:
 
THE REDBACK ON THE TOILET SEAT
by Slim Newton
There was a redback on the toilet seat
When I was there last night.
I didn't see him in the dark,
But boy I felt his bite.

I jumped high up into the air
And when I hit the ground,
That crafty redback spider
Wasn't nowhere to be found.

I rushed into the missus,
Told her just where I'd been bit.
She grabbed a cut-throat razor-blade
And I nearly took a fit.

I said, "Just forget what's on your mind
And call a doctor please,
'Cause I got a feeling that your cure
Is worse than the disease."

There was a redback on the toilet seat
When I was there last night.
I didn't see him in the dark,
But boy I felt his bite.

And now I'm here in hospital
A sad and sorry sight,
And I curse the redback spider
On the toilet seat last night.

I can't lie down, I can't sit up
And I don't know what to do,
And all the nurses think it's funny
But that's not my point of view.

I tell you its embarassing,
And that's to say the least,
That I'm too sick to eat a bit
While that spider had a feast.

And when I get back home again
I tell you what I'll do,
I'll make that redback suffer
For the pain I'm going through.

I've had so many needles
That I'm looking like a sieve,
And I promise you that spider
Hasn't very long to live.

There was a redback on the toilet seat
When I was there last night.
I didn't see him in the dark,
But boy I felt his bite.

But now I'm here in hospital
A sad and sorry sight,
And I curse the redback spider
On the toilet seat last night.
 
On the subject of children's songs, SADDEST SONG I'VE EVER HEARD. (seriously, I was traumatized the first time I heard this on Barney)

5 little ducks went out one day
over the hills and far away
Mother duck said quack quack quack quack
But only 4 little ducks came back

4 little ducks went out one day
over the hills and far away
Mother duck said quack quack quack quack
but only 3 little ducks came back

...

1 little duck went out one day
over the hills and far away
Mother duck said quack quack quack quack
but none of the little ducks came back


I was so devastated I had to make up another verse where the momma found all the little duckies. My sister to this day insists that verse is really in the song since I taught it to her when she was like 3.
