If Scientists Wrote Nursery Rhymes

[Dash]

Got them, very clever.

Clever indeed

Answers

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown,
And Jill came tumbling after.

2. Georgy Porgy (I note that "pudding and pie" was not mentioned in the scientific version. Too bad - it could have added another paragraph!)
Georgy Porgy, pudding and pie,
Kissed the girls and made them cry.
When the boys came out to play,
Georgy Porgy ran away.

3. Little Miss Muffet
Little Miss Muffet
Sat on a tuffet,
Eating of curds and whey;
Along came a spider,
And sat down beside her,
And frightened Miss Muffet away.

4. Old Mother Hubbard
Old Mother Hubbard;
Went to the cupboard,
To give her poor dog a bone;
But when she got there
The cupboard was bare,
And so the poor dog had none.

5. Sing a song of sixpence
Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye;
Four-and-twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie!

When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing;
Was not that a dainty dish
To set before the king?

6. There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
There was an old woman,
Who lived in a shoe;
She had so many children,
She didn't know what to do.
She gave them some broth,
Without any bread;
She whipped them all soundly,
And sent them to bed.
