Part One here.

The itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain
And the itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again
There he was culled
by his larger
and more genetically fit female mate
She harvested his nutrients to feed herself
and she was right to do it.


Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques,
Dormez-vous? Dormez-vous?
Good.


Ring-a-round the rosie,
A pocket full of posies,
Ashes! Ashes!

Nothing.


The farmer in the dell
The farmer in the dell
Heigh-ho, the derry-o
The farmer in the dell

The farmer may not leave the dell
The dell is a restricted males-only area
Males may not leave the dell
without a Travel Pass
and a Menstruating Companion

Heigh-ho, the derry-o
The farmer in the dell


Day is done,
Gone the son,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky.
All is well, safely rest,
Girls are nigh.


This little piggy went to market,
This little piggy stayed home,
This little piggy had roast beef,
This little piggy had none,
And this little piggy cried The nuclear family must be destroyed
all the way home.


London Bridge is falling down,
Falling down, falling down.
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair lady.

Build it up with wood and clay,
Wood and clay, wood and clay,
Build it up with wood and clay,
My fair lady.

Wood and clay will wash away,
Wash away, wash away,
Wood and clay will wash away,
My fair lady.

Build it up with bricks and mortar,
Bricks and mortar, bricks and mortar,
Build it up with bricks and mortar,
My fair lady.

Bricks and mortar will not stay,
Will not stay, will not stay,
Bricks and mortar will not stay,
My fair lady.

Build it up with iron and steel,
Iron and steel, iron and steel,
Build it up with iron and steel,
My fair lady.

Iron and steel will bend and bow,
Bend and bow, bend and bow,
Iron and steel will bend and bow,
My fair lady.

Build it up with silver and gold,
Silver and gold, silver and gold,
Build it up with silver and gold,
My fair lady.

Silver and gold will be stolen away,
Stolen away, stolen away,
Silver and gold will be stolen away,
My fair lady.

You have failed me for the last time;
The bridge will be built on your back
and the bones of your brothers.


Did you know the muffin man,
The muffin man, the muffin man,
Did you know the muffin man,
Who lived in Drury Lane?
All his properties and possessions are yours now,
You are the muffin woman,
You live on Drury Lane.


Down by the bay (down by the bay)
Where the watermelons grow (where the watermelons grow)
Back to my home (back to my home)
I dare not go (I dare not go)
For if I do (for if I do)
My mother will say (my mother will say)
feminism is the theory
lesbianism is the practice


Mary had a little man, little man, little man
Mary had a little man
whose leash was white as snow.

And everywhere that Mary went, Mary went, Mary went
Everywhere that Mary went
the man was sure to go.

He followed her to school one day
which was against the rules.

It made the women laugh and play, laugh and play, laugh and play
It made the women laugh and play
to see a man at school.

And so the teacher turned him out, turned him out, turned him out
So the teacher turned him out
but still he lingered near,

And waited patiently about, ‘ly about, ‘ly about
Waited patiently about
’till Mary did appear.


Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake — You there! Man!
Bake me a cake as fast as you can;
Roll it, pat it and mark it with B,
Put it in the oven and feed it to me.


There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile.
He found a crooked sixpence upon a crooked stile.
His money could not save him; he was killed with the others.


Simple Simon met a pieman,
Going to the fair;
Says Simple Simon to the pieman,
Let me taste your ware.
Simon was arrested for traveling alone,
The pieman was a Woman in disguise.
Men are not permitted in fairs.
It is forbidden for a man to eat pie.
