The Window Song

created by Lucy-S

(thing) by Lucy-S (2.9 min) (print)   ?   2 C!s I like it! Sat Apr 06 2002 at 17:28:24

This is a song I learned at Girl Scout camp. Instead of the sexual innuendo endemic to other songs we were taught, this one is filled with nihilism and raw violence. Almost any nursery rhyme or children's song can be perverted for use in this seemingly-gleeful chant about rampant defenestration:

Mary had a little lamb,
Whose fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went
She threw it out the window!
The window, the window!
The second-story window!
High low, low high
Throw it out the window!

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Threw him out the window!
The window, the window
The second-story window!
High low, low high
Throw him out the window!

It's raining, it's pouring,
The old man is snoring,
Got out of bed
And bumped his head
And threw it out the window!
The window, the window
The second-story window!
High low, low high
Throw it out the window!

(etc.)


I believe this song is not copyrighted.
