Such as "Ring Around The Rosy", "Rockabye Baby" etc...  I think "Ring Aroung The Rosy" has something to do with the plague, but not sure.  I don't care about the cute ones, I'm curious about the wierd ones.

"Ring Around The Rosy" is not about the Black Plague at all. It is simply a nursery rhyme of indefinite origin and no specific meaning, and someone, long after the fact, concocted an inventive "explanation" for its creation.\n\nAlthough folklorists have been collecting and setting down in print bits of oral tradition such as nursery rhymes and fairy tales for hundreds of years, the earliest print appearance of "Ring Around the Rosie" did not occur until the publication of Kate Greenaway's Mother Goose or The Old Nursery Rhymes in 1881. For the "plague" explanation of "Ring Around the Rosie" to be true, we have to believe that children were reciting this nursery rhyme continuously for over five centuries, yet not one person in that five hundred year span found it popular enough to merit writing it down.\n\nThe words and lyrics to the "Rock a bye baby" rhyme are reputed to reflect the observations of a young pilgrim boy in America who had seen Native Indian mothers suspend a birch bark cradle from the branches of a tree. Thus enabling the wind to rock the cradle and the child to sleep!  This rhyme is also known as "Hush a bye baby" which is the correct title. The confusion regarding these lyrics occurred due to the popularity of the old Al Jolson classic song "Rock a bye my baby with a Dixie melody!"

Rainbow sheep??!! I've never heard of that one! Although I know the rhyme was banned in some nursery schools in the UK (along with 3 blind mice, which was deemed insulting to disabled people ...)\n\nBut I ignore such stupid bans myself, and I taught both rhymes to my kids without turning them into racist thugs or disabled-people abusers...!\n\nPersonally, I think the 'rainbow sheep' version is more offensive, because black sheep have NOTHING to do with the colour of people's skin, and simply by forcing people to change the words you automatically make them more aware of the differences between the races.

These billboards are all over the US as of a few weeks ago.  Atlanta has been plagued with "I pooted" and "My boogers itch".  These phrases are from Fosters and Ed Edd and Eddy.  Other cities have seen "I have a meat beard" and "clowns hate tangelos".  These are from other cartoon network shows.  They possibly dis-included logos to get a better buzz, but children have a great recall quality that will enable them to remember lines like these from thier favorite television shows.  Since they are ads, the  purpose still is yet to be seen.  Have fun watching them pop up!

Swoon, Swear, Sweepstakes, Sweden, swampland, swandive, swashbuckler, swaddle, swing, swivel, swoop,swordfish, sword. \n\nOk, you know how when you type too many words with the same letters, they begin to look incorrect? I am experiencing that now. My reality has been altered. I have to quit now. This was very fun!

The author is unknown. One of those dear souls who wrote a song loved over the centuries and s/he goes totally unadorned for the creativity and talent.\n\nHere is what I found:\n\nWho wrote it? No one knows. But it’s been around for a long time. Although I couldn’t speak to its author, I could start with two facts. First, the twelve days are the period between the differing celebrations of Christmas—December 25 (in the Western church) and January 6 (in the Eastern church).\n\nSecond, people living when it was written commonly wrote, painted, and thought using symbols to express what they meant. All those birds and people are probably much more than they seem. (It certainly isn’t a coded list of significant biblical numbers. That probably confuses it with a similar song called “In Those Twelve Days”.) So I started looking. Here’s what I found.\n\nIn the Middle Ages birds were symbols of a human being, the soul, and each bird had specific associations. But the birds in the song had interesting Christian connections.\n\nThe partridge was always associated with Jesus’ birth. More than that, so was the pear tree. So the song begins with a double-image of the Nativity! \nSince I’m thinking of Jesus’ birth, “two turtle doves” brought to mind Jesus’ presentation at Mary’s purification (Luke 2:21-24) and the Spirit’s descent upon him after his baptism at the start of his public ministry (Luke 3:21-22). \n“French hens,” symbols of self-sacrifice and care, are reminiscent of Jesus’ role as the Good Shepherd to his own while he was among them. \n“Calling birds”? One author suggested it might originally be “colley birds,” that is, blackbirds. (Unfortunately I haven’t found anything on their symbolism…yet.) \nSince it’s Christmas, the “five gold rings” aren’t jewelry. Instead they remind us of golden ring-necked pheasants that were often associated with Nativity scenes (as can be seen in Fra Angelico’s Nativity) as well as a royalty (suggesting Jesus’ Messianic role) and the promise of life that rises from the ashes of death. \n“Geese” (whether white or gray) symbolized spiritual vigilance, avoidance of worldly pleasures, wholehearted devotion to Godly obedience. Sounds like Jesus again. \n“Seven swans” bring the opening series to a climax. Swans, always associated with royalty and prophecy, were thought to know the hour of their death and announce their death with a great cry (“swan song”), thereby earning them an enduring association with Christ’s work on the cross. Then add the biblical nuance of seven suggesting a completed work, and the connection to the cross is complete. \nBoy, this was really interesting! If I’d lived 500 years ago, singing the first seven verses could be a powerful reminder of my Savior, his life and work. \n\nAs anyone who sings this song knows, from here on you gotta hold on to your dentures! Momentum gathers with the last five gifts – all people. Lowly “milk maids” at work give way to dancing “ladies” and “lords” in ever-increasing displays of joy, followed by an orchestra of “pipers” and “drummers” to support the chorus, and rehearsed at a speed that carries me along in its grand celebration. What a wonderful way to celebrate the coming of our Savior!\n\nThen I got out my calculator. How many gifts were there? If one arrives on the first day, three on the second, six on the third, …by the last day there’s a grand total of 364 gifts. That’s one for every day of the year!\n\nNow at last I understood. “My True Love” was no mere earthly lover but my Heavenly Father. The gift of His Son was sufficient for every day of my year.\n\nThe irony? Everybody, even my fellow Christians, think it’s only a secular song. They even enjoy the lusty singing of its parodies – like “The Twelve Days After Christmas – to mock at the corruption of the holiday. They don’t understand why I can’t laugh and sing it with t
