I found the greatest thing ever for parents who sing songs to their kid like moi:"Lullaby and good night,
la la LA la, la LA la
hmm hmm hmmmmm hm, hmm hmm hmmmmm,
I do not know the words to this song.
But you must be tired, lil' Henry,
please go right to sleep,
la la LA, la la la, la la LA la la la."
Humpty Who? has over 80 classic songs, poems, lullabies, and riddles. And it comes with a cd of 35 of those songs set to music you just might be able to listen to for longer than three seconds without puking. This means it is semi-tolerable, which is saying a lot considering the music for kids that is currently out on the market. Debbie's got a gazillion copies at Spoiled Rotten if you'd like your own to boogie to. Happy listening.

Not sure this would help - I do know all the words (required for my job) to many songs, but while I'm in the moment (you know, 2am, or after trying for hours to get him to sleep) I just end up making up words because I cannot remember the real ones.
Either way - this is a great CD for any parent. Those classic songs are great to help get kids ready to read. No kidding. There are kindergarten curriculums that are written to include such classics because these days most kids don't know them!
Hmm...kids these days...
