It’s no big deal when I see
I sleep till noon when I see
I clean the door hinge when I see
Yes I open the door hinge when I see

July 24th, 2011 at 9:49 am
I finally came up with the song! About the ants on the computer OK here it is all my hard work.
Its called Ants, When I came home I was tired so I went to see the computer then guess what I saw, a bunch of red speaks moving around and I was so scared (and I was so scared)When I touch one I got a bite and it hurt really so I asked my Mom for help and she said “Don’t worry it won’t hurt for very long.” so I waited all day long it didn’t hurt that much then when I was going to bed my bed was covered with ants so I ran away and never came again.
July 25th, 2011 at 9:49 am
lol. Almost a halloween story. The attack of the ants!

I sometimes do song workshops with kids and The Duck Song helps them see that songs can be funny. In Australia we have a hugely popular entertainer Justine Clarke who also sings funny songs for 3 to 5 year olds. Keep writing!!

Hi I was wondering do you think that you could write a song for picture day.. I always thought that there could be a funny song about something like picture school day!
Please reply!
November 19th, 2011 at 12:58 am
Hi. it doesn’t usually work for me to take requests. I just write songs that come to me. But thanks for asking. (WHAT IS PICTURE DAY? The day they come and take everyone’s picture?)
November 19th, 2011 at 10:15 am
Yep that`s picture day< thanks for replying
By the way I`m in LOVE with your songs!!!
November 19th, 2011 at 11:55 am
Thanks Jayme
November 19th, 2011 at 1:30 pm
so are you going to write a song about school picture day?
November 19th, 2011 at 9:31 pm
It could be a good song, but it just works for me to write songs that come to me, that I’m inspired to write. maybe YOU could try it
November 20th, 2011 at 4:29 pm
I might need some help because i`m not very good at writing songs.
Thanks

January 10th, 2012 at 2:58 pm
I love the color song. Somebody told me once that the english language has no rhymes for orange and silver. I congratulate you in beating the odds and laws of literature. Keep on being awsome, Mr. Oden.
