The Dreaming Tree

[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

What is this madness?!  It’s like two Music Mondays in a row!

789 by Barenaked Ladies from Snacktime, probably the best children’s cd ever.  (I bet there are a few words in that sentence you never thought would go together!)  I keep it in my high school classroom.  Sometimes I think my students don’t really know what to do with me, but I hope I can teach them to not take themselves too seriously.  :)

123 and 4 more makes 7
And 6 is afraid of 7…
Cause 7 ate 9
Nine was minding his buisness
Talking to 10
about Gordie Howe’s clothes
Why 7 ate 9, nobody knows

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10
What about 9?
7 ate 9!

Oh the cat’ll have to live
with eight lives now
Ronaldo will have to make do
Ever since seven ate nine it seems I’ve
got an extra finger and extra toe too
7 ate 9!

Once upon a time in our solar system
We couldn’t make do without 9
But Pluto’s not a planet now,
so 8’ll do fine

Oh, the cat’ll have to do with 8 lives now
And the Chinese will be out of luck
And vampires will have to think of some
other method cause without K-9s,
how will they suck?

7 ate 9!

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10
What about 9?
7 ate 9! 

PS:  the music video is really cute!
