In my last post I warn against throwing the baby out with the bathwater. This calls for a song about babies and bathwater, and what better than "Your Baby Has Gone Down the Plughole"? Click below for a mother's lament:

The song is best sung in a Cockney accent. My favourite line, from the angel, is "he won't need a bath anymore". Heartless but true.

Incidentally, over a year ago, somebody got his knickers in a twist with babies and bathwater and wrote about "using a sledgehammer to crack the baby in the bathwater." This prompted a mangle of mixed metaphors and malapropisms which readers may wish to revisit.

They bugger belief.
