Several people have requested my new Baa Baa Black Sheep verses, which are already canon around my house.
I'm working with a friend to pitch this as a picture book, so hopefully this is an epic preview to a future baby classic. Fingers crossed!
Baa Baa Black Sheep: The Secret Verses
Baa Baa Black Sheep have you any wool
Yes sir, yes sir six bags full
One for the master
One for the dame
One for the little boy who lives down the lane
One for the owls
One for the crows
One for the fireflies that glitter and glow
Baa Baa black sheep have you any wool
Yes sir, yes five bags full
One for the sorcerer
One for his cats
One for the sea serpent’s fuzzy black hat
One for the bat-queen
Who needs a new gown
One for the chilly wolves who prowl round the town
Baa Baa Black Sheep have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir four bags full
One for the vampire's
Thick winter coat
One for the thing that lives in the moat
One for the moon and
One for the stars
Big silver earmuffs and a million scarves
Baa Baa Black Sheep have you any wool
Yes sir, yes sir three bags full
One for the skeleton
One for the trees
One for the magic child who meets them all for tea
Baa Baa Black Sheep have you any wool
Yes sir, yes sir, two bags full
One for the mad wizard’s favorite toad
One for the happy witch who lives down the road
Baa Baa Black Sheep have you any wool
Yes sir, yes sir, one bag full
One for the ghost of the lord in the hall
He needs it for a suit for the graveyard ball
Baa Baa Black Sheep have you any wool
No sir, no sir no bags full
None for the ghost or the witch or the cats
None for the serpent or the moon or the bat
None for the toad or the wolves or the trees
None for the stars or the child having tea
None for the little boy, none for the ghost
Not even for the thing that lives in the moat
None for the vampire and none for the dame
But if you come in spring I shall have wool again
