My mother told me
If I was goody
That she would buy me
A rubber dolly

You never heard a sound

Cellophane from old baloney,
Rubbery, blubbery macaroni
Peanut butter, caked and dried
Curdled milk and crusts of pie...

Shanona, I don't know who did yours, but on David Bowie's first album he had one.

Rubber band
Won't you play that haunting theme again for me

Wow, this one is hard. Too bad nothing on the Beatles "Rubber Soul" album contains the actual word "rubber"!

The wonderful thing about Tiggers
Is Tiggers are wonderful things
Their tops are made out of rubber
Their bottoms are made out of springs

Winnie the Pooh

We three kings of orient are
Smoking on a rubber cigar
It was loaded, it exploded

BOOM.

We two kings of orient are...

We laid rubber on the Georgia asphalt
We got a little crazy but we never got caught

Sandra Dodd said...

I get pushed out of shape and it's hard to steer
When I get rubber in all four gears.

Sally said...

And I've never licked a spark plug
And I've never kissed a stink bug
And I've never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball
And I've never bathed in yogurt
And I don't look good in leggings
And I've never been to Boston in the fall

-"The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" from VeggieTales

Sandra Dodd said...

You can be a bathtime bopper
Don't pull out the stopper
One, two, three
Do the duck, duck, duck
Rubber duck
Rubber duck, duck, duck...

A Sesame Street reggae-esque bathtub song

Holly said...

Though I'm too crazy 'bout your rubber ducky
Though I don't like pigeons still we're very lucky

Bert and Ernie

Sandra Dodd said...

("not too crazy...." that should've been)

Holly and I were trying to think of more Bert and Ernie songs about the duck...

In "Dance Myself to Sleep":
Well I'm gettin' kinda drowsy so the moment has come
To grab my rubber ducky while the sheep take my chum...

Elisha said...

Just remember that ant
Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant

"High Hopes"

Sally said...

Ernie, keep your cool
I'll teach you how to blow the sax
I think I dig your problem
It's rubber and it quacks

-"Put Down the Duckie" on Sesame Street

Never, ever had a lover
Who put the peddle to the metal
And burn rubber on me, Charlie
Oh, no
-Gap Band

If I could learn to twang like a rubber band, I'd be a rubber band girl.

Shanona,

Rubber Band Man was by The Spinners

She wishes that all rubber duckies would sink
That's me - I'm the lady in pink
