i love how she does it like a little kids rhyme... kinda shows that people back then wernt even pahsed at all by this sort of thing. like it was a totally normal everyday thing for little children to sing about.
pure magic!!
lol This song is so cute! I sing it just about everyday! I love how she takes something as gruesome and serious as 19th century asylums and turns it into something so hilarious.
I love how she uses the tune of Miss Suzie Had a Tugboat and built on that but with the theme of asylums instead of nonsense but still has it being funny!
I love how she uses the tune of Miss Suzie Had a Tugboat and built on that but with the theme of asylums instead of nonsense but still has it being funny!
i agree with xxsyntheticxx its verry cool in fact me and mi sister created a hand game to go along with it its not at all complex yet it certainly creeps ppl out @ the mall lol
This song is so much fun to do with the clapping, especially when you have a friend who knows all the words to the song.~
I'm making a sheet of lyrics for my friend to learn the song right now! She's a minor muffin but she's in love with this song! We sing it at lunch, but we have only three people including ourselves at the table, but it's still fun! >D
This song is about females in asylums in victorian times, but it is also directly connected with letters from the asylum in EA's book, the asylum for wayward victorian girls.
I love this song, especially the bit where she says "He'll tie you to the table and he'll mutilate your... come, it's nearly teatime..." You think it's going to be something completely different. :D
I love this song so much xD It's like the assumption song.
