“Don’t Wake the Baby” by Jaymie Gerard
I banged the drums, a-rat-tat-tat
But Mommy said, “Don’t wake the baby”
I clinked and clanked and clunked and clapped
And Mommy said, “Don’t wake the baby”
I ran and skipped, I sang and danced
But Mommy said, “Don’t wake the baby”
I flew, I flipped, I galloped, I pranced
And Mommy said, “Don’t wake the baby”
I soared through space with beeping toys
But Mommy said, “Don’t wake the baby”
I made an elephant-ish noise
And Mommy said, “Don’t wake the baby”
“Don’t wake the baby,” she says day and night,
“At least until nap time’s done!”
But it’s not easy keeping quiet,
When making noise is fun!
