‘Kay, so not that these ideas of mine generally seem to take off, but giving it a shot anyway. I just watched this video, in which John Green can’t remember the words to Hush Little Baby and starts making stuff up, and it turns hilarious. And I realized that I don’t remember much farther than he does.

So I figure, if each person adds one more silly ad-lib link to the song, this could be a pretty fun chain. (I recommend using ‘I’m’ in place of ‘Mommy’ or ‘Daddy’ or what-have-you, just so it all flows together)

(Doing the first five lines as normal, and then the fun begins)

Hush little baby, don’t say a word;
I’m gonna buy you a mocking bird.

And if that mocking bird don’t sing,
I’m gonna buy you a diamond ring.

And if that diamond ring don’t shine…
