Lilly, it's a good thing you have no idea what I'm saying when I sing you to sleep. Here's what did the trick this morning!

Hush little baby, don't say a word, Momma's gonna buy you a mocking bird.
And if that mocking bird don't sing, Momma's gonna buy you a diamond ring.
And if that diamond ring don't shine, Momma's gonna buy you a... a... pair of nines?
And if that pair of nines don't win, Momma's gonna buy you a brand new Schwinn.
And if that brand new Schwinn don't ride, Momma's gonna buy you a Barbie bride.
And if that Barbie bride don't wed, Momma's gonna buy you a new day bed.
And if that new daybed don't sleep, Momma's gonna buy you a fuzzy Sleep Sheep.
And if that fuzzy Sleep Sheep don't play, Momma's gonna buy you a bale of hay.
And if that bale of hay don't scrratch, Momma's gonna buy you a pirate patch.
And if that pirate patch don't scare, Momma's gonna buy you a dog with no hair.
And if that dog with no hair don't bark, Momma's gonna buy you a ride in Central Park.
And if that ride in Central Park don't clop, Momma's gonna buy you a Libman mop.
And if that Libman mop don't clean, Momma's gonna buy you a jumping bean.
And if that jumping bean don't jump, Momma's gonna buy you a double breast pump.


And thankfully you were out at this point. Things were really heading south, what with the hairless dog and the double automatic pump.
