Filkin' baby style

beetigerI sing a lot around here. Pretty much everything I do with the baby, I sing about. Mostly I make up songs to well-known tunes. Alternately, I just sing silly songs that seem relevant, except I forget a lot of the words so I have to make them up.
I seem to have developed a lot of songs about being naked. I never worried about it until last weekend, when we had some lovely houseguests (hi,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
melskunk!), and I realized that singing "It's naked tummy time/ it's naked tummy time, 'cause everything's more fun/when you have no clothes on" was perhaps a bit odd.
But the latest one to develop is the bath song. I've been singing "Splish Splash", reasonably enough. But for some reason, I couldn't remember the fourth line, so I was singing "Splish Splash, I was takin' a bath/All upon a Saturday night!/ Rubadub, I was scrubbing in the tub...", and then for some reason, the next line kept coming out "Lookin' for an angel to fi-ight...".
In any case, I ended up finishing it, and so now I'm singing to my son at bathtime: "Lookin' for an angel to fi-ight/ So I found that angel and I kicked its butt/ It went running to the Angel Hut/ Splish Splash, I got back in the bath, it's alright!"
Does this make me a bad mom?
