I wish my little girl would sleep.
i could sing her a sleeping song, if you like.
and not the one about
"goooooooo to sleeeeeeeep,
cos, if you don't, then insects and woooooorms and disgusting thiiiings
will crawl up your noooooooose, and into your braaaaaaain
and then burst out of your eyeeees, in a shower of nasty gloopy stuuuuuuuuuuuff..."
etc.
kids just love that one, she said, happily.
on the other hand, i could just do "golden slumbers"...
