Christmas Corpse Count

[lydy]

My mother sent me two more little dead people! I now have, in addition to "Toast Out with a Fork", "Drive Around the Boom Gates at a Level Crossing" and "Stand Too Close to a Train Station Platform." The latter two also sing. If you press them in the right place (or roll over on them in bed), they sing the chorus. Since there are two of them, you can make them sing the chorus in the round. Which I do not advise. They are very fine, and they came with book marks, as well. They were also tied down to little platforms, but I cut them loose, as the goal is to litter my entire bed with little dead, mutilated people.

Eighteen more to go!

I tried to find those guys for Christmas for my children and had NO LUCK. Your mother is talented.

This is my go-to video for when I'm feeling blue. It is an honest to god Public Service Annoucement. It is also very Australian.

And, they are making plushies of all the little dead people. I want them all. All of them, I tell you. And I will sing them their portion of the song, and we will all be very happy together. Me and my little dead people. Little dead, mutilated people. That sing.
