A lullabye, from the lovely Mr Minchin...

The countdown to bedtime begins(only 4 hours to go...)..godspeed my friends!

Oh Ruth that's so funny. I just love TM - he just gets it so badly right. :))

I know this from many years past and thought I would show my then 10 year old as an introduction to Tim Minchin (my son wants to be a stand up comedian when he 'grows up'). I completely forgot about the language factor!! My son loved it, I cringed.

That lullaby is so funny but so true - he played it at the Comedy Proms last year (not that I saw it live!) and I have recorded it to share with my friends who are expecting their first. Hopefully, they'll see the funny side and also realise it's ok to feel like that when they pacing up and down at 3am with a screaming baby!

it's brilliant, and much in the vein of that book of poetry 'go the f**k to sleep', love it. will play to my husband over dinner!
