Getting Around Conventional Limits: A Waltmarie

Twinkle twinkle little stars, please tell me wherever you are,
sky blue,
The cows turn their heads, as they stand in their beds,
grass grew,
The mop and the broom had to clean up a room,
mushroom,
Mom goes no-no, Dad goes boo-boo, the baby goes poo-poo
karma,
The bass and the trout went swimming about
school's out.
