I thought I had the parenting thing sussed. Every night as I lay my daughter to bed I used to sing
Coconut head, coconut head, my little tiny baby has a coconut head. She’s got bananas for arms and bananas for legs, but my little tiny baby has a coconut head
15 years and 10K on therapy later the night terrors are significantly less frequent, and I'm prepared to admit I might have been better off with a more classic night time lullaby.

My dad always used to sing.......Oh you're a funny one,
with a face like a pickled onion,
and a nose like a squashed tomato,
and teeth like broad beans.
I giggled at the time, although now I think about it he was essentially saying I had a face like one of Linda McCartney's turds.

My Mum used to sing this to usI'd completely forgotten. Used to make us cry with laughter. I guess we were easily amused.
