Old MacDonald (Revised)

Tonight, C suggested we sing "Old MacDonald Had a Garden." Any use of the words herein are subject to the CODE of the Songwriters and Musicians Guild and proceeds are due to C's college fund. Unauthorized use of the words will earn you a trip to Guantanamo Bay. To the traditional tune:

Old MacDonald had a garden
E-I-E-I-O
And in this garden he had a
Corn
E-I-E-I-O
With a
Cluck, Cluck here and a
Cluck, Cluck there. etc.
(Chickens obviously eat the corn in the garden)

Old MacDonald had a garden
E-I-E-I-O
And in this garden he had a
Carrot
E-I-E-I-O
With a
Bite, Bite here and a
Bite, Bite there. etc.
(Rabbits of course eat the carrots in the garden)

Old MacDonald had a garden
E-I-E-I-O
And in this garden he had a
Grape
E-I-E-I-O
With a
Juice, juice here and a
Juice, juice there. etc.
(What else are you going to do with grapes? At least until you learn about fermentation...)

Old MacDonald had a garden
E-I-E-I-O
And in this garden he had a
Grape
E-I-E-I-O
With a
Sqush, Sqush here and a
Sqush, Sqush there. etc.
(How else can you make juice? And who thought we could get two verses out of grapes?)

Old MacDonald had a garden
E-I-E-I-O
And in this garden he had an
Apple
E-I-E-I-O
With a
Crunch, crunch here and a
Crunch, crunch there. etc.
(Do I really need to add commentary on this one?)

I was looking forward to hearing the sound of broccoli, but we'll have to wait for the extended play edition for that one...
