Paging Dr. Baby

[As transcribed by Daddy]

Sometimes I get ahead of myself when I request a song. By the time Mommy's sung the first verse of one, I'm requesting the next. I kept asking for 'Doctor' (Five Little Monkeys) and then 'Baby,' so Mommy invented a new song, Doctor Baby, on the spot. Here are the lyrics:

Doctor Baby

Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot

Doctor Baby is a friend of mine
Doctor Baby is really kind
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot

Doctor Baby is ten months old
Doctor Baby knows when you have a cold
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot

Some folks say that he's too young
But you and I know he'll soon be one!
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot
Doctor Baby
Doot Doot Doot

DOCTOR BABY!
[DA-DA!!]

Mommy and Basil and I went for a long hike down the street today. At one point, I stopped to check out some ants I saw one time - six months ago. What a memory! Later, a door-to-door meat salesman came over and sold us some chicken. Not making that up. Didn't see Daddy tonight, as he was busy.
