Ok, let's try this. Watch the video of this simple sing-a-long song I wrote (ignore that really wrong chord I hit at one point). Read the lyrics below. Replace words with things you like. You could, for example, remove the word "hairballs" and put "werewolves" in its place (I tried to make replacement word rhyme with the one it was replacing. Can you do the same? Or change all the words in the verse so they work together?)
Send your ideas to me at thedeedledeedledees AT yahoo DOT com.
Our composition might end up on an album (I'm considering a real studio sing-a-long record. But it's very much in the planning-the-planning stage). At the very least I'll put a new version on YouTube featuring my favorites of the suggestions I receive. So far "vampire squid" (suggested by a kid at my Friday sing-a-long in Lefferts Gardens, Brooklyn) is my top candidate for inclusion.

Sing-a-long, baby Sing-a-long, mom
Sing-a-long, popsicles Sing-a-long, hairballs
Sing-a-long, floorboards Sing-a-long, walls

Sing-a-long, horses Sing-a-long, goose
Sing-a-long, wildebeest Sing-a-long, moose
Sing-a-long, feet and shoes!
it's a sing-a-long song everybody sing along
Sing-a-long, ninjas Sing-a-long, police
Sing-a-long, princesses Sing-a-long, peas
Sing-a-long, knights Sing-a-long, daisies
I'll sing-a-long with you if you sing-a-long with me
Sing-a-long, dragons Sing-a-long, teeth
Sing-a-long, overpass Sing-a-long underneath
Sing-a-long, potholes in the street
Sing-a-long, donuts Sing-a-long, dads
Sing-a-long, dogs Sing-a-long, doo-rags
Sing-a-long happy Sing-a-long sad
Sing-a-long in the mud and then later in the bath
Sing-a-long, train tracks and car alarms
sing it in the city so they can hear it on the farm
Sing-a-long, eggplant parm
