The term nursery rhyme is used for "traditional" poems for young children in Britain and many other countries, but usage only dates from the 19th century and in North America the older ‘Mother Goose Rhymes’ is still often used.
The oldest children's songs of which we have records are lullabies, intended to help a child sleep. Lullabies can be found in every human culture. The English term lullaby is thought to come from "lu, lu" or "la la" sound made by mothers or nurses to calm children, and "by by" or "bye bye", either another lulling sound, or a term for good night. Until the modern era lullabies were usually only recorded incidentally in written sources. The Roman nurses' lullaby, "Lalla, Lalla, Lalla, aut dormi, aut lacte", is recorded in a scholium on Persius and may be the oldest to survive.
Many medieval English verses associated with the birth of Jesus take the form of a lullaby, including "Lullay, my liking, my dere son, my sweting" and may be versions of contemporary lullabies. However, most of those used today date from the 17th century. For example, a well known lullaby such as "Rock-a-bye, baby on a tree top", cannot be found in records until the late-18th century when it was printed by John Newbery (c. 1765).

Does it mean I never let you know,
Each time I turn inside,
When I fully grow I'll outsize you,
But I won't let you fall in love,
You know it flows over me,
And you won't let me drown inside.
Sing a nursery rhyme to keep me quiet,
Sing a nursery rhyme to keep me quiet,
Woman please stay close to me, close to me,
Carried through your ecstasy.
You can't stop me breathing...
Even when you're on fire.
Know that you're weaving,
With my emotional wires.
Flows through me, in through me, out through me,
Over me, feeling me, feeding me electrically.
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love.
Do do do do, do do do do,
I have to breathe the air you breathe,
I'm inside you,
In a room inside a room, I'm inside you.
The colour changes follow your emotion,
I can see when you're feeling desire.
I feel him close to you...
While I just walk around inside you,
Don't let him close to me...
Not when you know it's not the one,
The one, the one, the one, the one
The one, the one that you love.
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
It's electric ballroom love,
Keep me quiet.
Won't you sing me a nursery rhyme,
To keep me quiet, while you're on fire.
Won't you sing me a nursery rhyme,
To keep me quiet, while you're on fire.
Won't you sing me a nursery rhyme,
To keep me quiet, while you're on fire.
Please just sing me a nursery rhyme,
To keep me quiet, while I'm inside.
Please just sing me a nursery rhyme,
To keep me quiet, while I'm inside.

Hickory dickory dock, the mouse ran up the clock
So it's time to get the cheese, y'all be rhymin like yo please
I got that second bowel flow, I'm rhymin with the ease
You never see me on lists inside these magazines
But I'm +The Source+ of rap discussions, they Vibe-in with Ortiz
In my +XXL+ shirt, lion over my jeans
It's like I'm fightin in Europe, I'm fire overseas!
Hip-Hop's messiah, bring your sire to his knees
I'm "nevaeh" in reverse, paradise in the P's
I'm Iron Mike in the '80s in the black trunks
Act pump ya lyin on your back slump, all my lions pack punch
Who wan' be rap lunch? Me make your snack chump
Ya likkle pistol pack pack pump, me mac dump!
Fast munch, I reckon you stay away from the wreckin ball
If I swing in your direction I'll level you all like a measured wall
The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out
I'm the definition of ill, Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water, I took Jack's crown and pushed him down
I manslaughter all around the damn border
Optimus in his +Prime+, a fuckin Transformer!
Walk in any club I'm the subject of camcorders
So I'm slidin out the back e'ry night with a man's daughter
Puttin my you-know-what, you know where
No not down there, in between both ears
Leave my seeds on they nose hairs, oh yeah I go there
What the fuck you expect? I fuck necks 'til they throat tears
Embody the projects, symbolize the struggle
Where the kids pawn my object to minimize the trouble
I been in rides with duffle bags stuffed with the crack
Few years later I put them same drugs on the track
Got the globe hot from coca in a flow you can't toca
So listen close chocha, CLLATE LA BOCA
Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Goddamn I'm the man, Mary had a little lamb
Whose fleece was white as snow
I skinned him and ROCKED that lil' nigga to my show
I be dipper than an O-, R-E-O cookie I'mma milk 'em for this dough
I'm a pilgrim with the hoes - I could rock a Plymouth Sundance
In dumb pants and still thank her for givin me a blow, job
No prob, they go home I go. hard
And find another broad to hump free/Humphrey, Bo-gart
John Rambo got ammo for whole squads
I rhyme over a banjo and handle yo' bars
I'm high and won't fall like a dope nod
I'm outta here, every rhyme's a postdated postcard
Don't mention my name, just keep playin yo' part
Cause I got a +Gang+ of +Wolves+, Amadeus Mozart's
I don't smile, ain't gon' set it
See you in the hospital spellin YAOWA, Yo' Ass On Wild Anesthetics!
Old MacDonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O
And on this farm he had you ducks, garbage with your flow
Y'all can't fuck with Joell
Y'all just be sayin stuff that only he can understand
NURSERY RHYME
(Ellas McDaniel)
My sister's name is Puudin' Tame,
They asked if she would stay the same,
My brother's name is Little Jack Horner,
My mama asked to watch to heat warm them.
Sister told papa when he got home,
Papa, papa, he sassed and moaned,
Papa looked at brother, far in his eyes,
Brother started on thr handjive.
He called sister, and he called mom,
Said, "Look here, look here, what's this going on?"
Everybody had a real surprise,
But brother had tears in his eyes.
Brother's so scared he couldn't walk,
Papa's afraid he could not talk.
I LOVE YOU SO
(Ellas McDaniel)
Oh, I, I, I, baby, I love you so,
You know, you know, I love you so.
All my life I been lovin' you,
Sometimes I wonder, baby, what you're gonna do.
You told me honey, that our love's unreal,
I can't be with you 'cos you won't be filled.
You keep tellin' all our closest friends,
That you were with me from the very beginin',
I, I, yeah, I love you so.
In the morning, it's alright,
In the evening, it's still alright,
In the night, it's alright,
Where you be, it's still alright.
Falling down the stairs one, two, three, four
Pick the broken bodies up off the floor
I just killed a good friend of mine
Five, six, seven, eight and nine
Well I hope you have enjoyed my little nursery rhyme
Bone shivering chills crawling up your spine
Entering your brain and then twisting your mind
They're hiding in the attic right above my room
Knocking on the closet door boom boom boom
Scratching at the window should I let them in
Falling down the stairs one, two, three, four
Pick the broken bodies up off the floor
I just killed a good friend of mine
Five, six, seven, eight and nine
Well I hope you have enjoyed my little nursery rhyme
Bone shivering chills crawling up your spine
Entering your brain and then twisting your mind
They're hiding in the attic right above my room
Knocking on the closet door boom boom boom
Scratching at the window should I let them in
Does it mean I never let you know
Each time I turn inside
When I fully grow I'll outsize you
But I won't let you fall in love
You know it flows over me
And you won't let me drown inside
Sing a nursery rhyme to keep me quiet
Sing a nursery rhyme to keep me quiet
Woman please stay close to me, close to me
Carried through your ecstasy
You can't stop me breathing
Even when you're on fire
Know that you're weaving
With my emotional wires
Flows through me, in through me, out through me
Over me, feeling me, feeding me electrically
It's electric ballroom love X7
Do do do do, do do do do
I have to breathe the air you breathe

In a room inside a room, I'm inside you
The colour changes follow your emotion
I can see when you're feeling desire
I feel him close to you

The one X6 that you love
It's electric ballroom love X7
Keep me quiet
Won't you sing me a nursery rhyme
To keep me quiet while you're on fire
Please just sing me a nursery rhyme
To keep me quiet, while I'm inside
I won't let you fall in love
You know inside, the baby knows
Your baby knows X4
You're on fire, you're on fire
Sandman, come to me tonight,
Comfort me till morning light
As darkness falls and shadows loom,
I bid you welcome to my room
Rest your bones beside my bed,
Lay your hands upon my head
Cast your spell of slumber deep,
And stay beside me as I sleep
If I should die before I wake,
Looking out the window
I can see it drifting
Slowly in a distance
Softly in this instance
Seems so inconvenient
Parting such sweet sorrow
It would be much simpler
If we live together
I remember laughing
As if in slow motion
Smiling at the thought of
An unhappy ending
Cause I can't
I can't forgive you
No I can't
I can't forgive you
I was just pretending
Looking out the bright side
Comply with tradition
With the ??? intuition
Filthy my ???
Scareful my devises
Feel a ??? lawyer
Would have served you better
Cause I can't
I can't forgive you
No I can't
I can't forgive you
Looking out my window
I can see you drifting
Slowly in a distance
Softly in this instance
Floating in the water...
Cause I can't
I can't forgive you
No I can't
I can't forgive you
No No I can't
No I can't
No no no no
We, in this blowing of time
We lose our dreams as the trees give their leaves to the ground
With no more poetries to cry
We're still here without a place to hide
Not finding shade to shelter from the fury of the Sun
Couldn't melt the dark ice of the night
Just running on fast in vain and then running again
We, with no sunset in sight
We face together the passing of time
With no more poetries to cry
We're still awake in this nightmare just trying to find rhymes
A somber stream flows down the stars
crossing my dreams, reaching my heart
and in this stream I find my heaven
The sound is deep into the night
where wolves are howling at their moonlight
and in this darkness is sweet to lose one's way
No time to kiss my last good-byes, just touch your face for the last time, I leave this gardens of grief forever
Just give me a reason to remain, I'll give you a thousand to go away
let's look together for somewhere better
