Nursery Crime

Rock-a-bye baby on the tree top.
When the wind blows the cradle will rock
When the bough breaks the cradle will fall.
Down comes the baby, cradle and all.

Ok, is it just me or is this lullaby seriously disturbing? What kind of a warped mind writes a nursery rhyme about the metaphorical death of a baby? And why are we still taught all this shit in kindergarten?

Wow, it certainly is a wierd, wierd world out there, isn't it?
