MUMSNET RHAPSODY (surely worth a place in the hall of fame?

Is this real life? Is this just fantasy.. Caught in a school run
No escape from domesticity
Force open your eyes
Look up to the skies... and Scream

I'm just a housewife
I need no sympathy
so it's easy come easy go
No return from this we know
Anyway the wind blows
they always want lifts home from me....from me...

Mama I need a drink,
Not water only Juice
In my green cup don't want blue
Mama I've just stubbed my thumb
And now I've gone and lost my highchair tray!

Mama - waaaaaaah
I know I always cry,
You sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
I see a little silhouetto of a brat Scaramouch scaramouch will you drink your bl**dy tango
Tikkabilla's frightening
Very, very frightening,
see Wacky Warehouse...waccky warehouse Wacky Warehouse, take me there

Bala-mo-ry would you like to go?! (like to go?)
Bala-mo-ry would you like to know?! (like to know?)

They're just two poor boys
Who think nobody loves them
Staring all night at some pork sausages Bismillah!
No - we will not let you go -
let him go
Bismillah!
We will not let you go -
let him go
Bismillah!
We will not let you go -
let me go
Oh no it's SWMNBM
Oh no not SWMNBM!
Come on SWMNBM let me go!

Oh mama mia, mama mia,
mama mia let me go
And Annabel has a blender put aside for meeeee for meeeeee, for meeeeeeeee
(OR
Beelzebub gave a devil of a son to meeee, to meeee, to meeeeeeeee for meeeeeeeeeeeeee)

So you think you can spit apple mush in my eye?
So you think you can scoff bits of cake on the sly?
OOoooooooooo baby,
don't ask why again baby,
Your curious mind,
is giving me a kind,
of a migraine

How can I love you and yet feel that I want to die
ooooh baby -- need some sleep tonight baby
Can't get up at 3am anymore ...

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah You are all that matters Anyone can see
You are all that matters - You are all that matters to me
Anyway the wind blows..

And wih Christmas coming.....

Mumsnet Wonderland

Door bell rings, we?re not listening
in the glass wine is glistening
A beautiful sight we're happy tonight
Typing in a Mumsnet wonderland

Gone away to a meet up
or sat here withour feet up
We make up cr*p songs
as we go along
Typing in a Mumsnet wonderland

Mumsnetters of many many nations
Are watching all the namechangers like hawks
And over there in active conversations
They're arguing on feeding babe with norks

Later on we'll go moony
as we dream of George Clooney
And face unafraid
Parenting mistakes we've made
Typing in a Mumsnet wonderland

Parps aplenty echo through the night air
but even if we know we shouldn't post
we can't help ourselves and we'll be right there
For mumsnet is the place we love the most

Gone away is the figure
Here to stay something bigger
We can learn to kickbox
or drink wine and eat chocs
wobbling in a mumsnet winterland
Typing in a Mumsnet wonderland
Typing in a Mumsnet wonderland

Er, I had nothing to do with creation of the Rhapsody, just love it!

Did help with the Wonderland though. Loads more Christmas songs stored, must dig them out!

Who else has saved their MN songs?

I think we need the original threads where these songs were devised

Ahem.....

Caught in a school run
No escape from domesticity


Wouldn't "No escape from the drudgery" scan better? (ducks).

There was one we were trying to do on the chat boards a few weeks ago, to the tune of "Rockstar" by Nickelback...

something like having NHS direct on your phone speed dial, and many good gems like that.
