A mother was washing her baby one night The youngest of ten and a delicate mite The mother was poor, and the baby was thin Twas naught but an skellington covered with skin The mother turned 'round for a soap off the rack She was only a moment, but a-when she turned back Her baby had gone and in anguish she cried "Oh, where 'as my baby gone?" The angels replied "Oh, your baby has gone down the plug-'ole Oh, your baby has gone down the plug The poor little thing was so skinny and thin He should 'ave been washed in a jug, in a jug Your baby is perfectly happy He won't need a bath anymore He's a-muckin' about with the angels above Not lost, but gone before"
Now the kid has THREE feet in the grave.

The mother was poor, and the baby was thin
Twas naught but an skellington covered with skin
The mother turned 'round for a soap off the rack
She was only a moment, but a-when she turned back
Her baby had gone and in anguish she cried
"Oh, where 'as my baby gone?" The angels replied
"Oh, your baby has gone down the plug-'ole
Oh, your baby has gone down the plug
The poor little thing was so skinny and thin
He should 'ave been washed in a jug, in a jug
Your baby is perfectly happy
He won't need a bath anymore
He's a-muckin' about with the angels above
Not lost, but gone before"
@MMM- Wow, you may have outdone yourself this time.
