My uncle wrote a song to the tune of the Beatles' song "Eight Days a Week", about ILoveBunnies' main rabbit chore: emptying and filling rabbit water bottles. When the weather is warm, they are completely emptied and filled every day. I am usually out there filling them as she brings them and empties them into the flower pots, but not always.
Anyway, he saw her head out to the rabbitry every day, in spite of the punishing temps, to change the water. So he wrote this song and, since he can play guitar, he accompanied himself as he sang it for us. We rewarded him with plenty of chuckles and clapping. So here it is:
KISS 'N' TELL AT THE SMELL HOTEL
"Ooooh, I need a break, Mom,
Guess you know it's true.
Can't you change the water
After scrapin' poo?
"Spill 'em. Fill 'em. Spill 'em. Fill 'em.
I ain't got nothin' but hutch time, eight days a week.
"I'm out there every day, Mom,
At the "Smell Hotel".
Changin' rabbit water
Makes me want to yell...
"Spill 'em. Fill 'em. Spill 'em. Fill 'em.
I ain't got nothin' but hutch time, eight days a week.
"Eight days a week, I'm workin' for the bunnies.
Eight days a week is not enough to show I care."
"Change that water, Daughter,
Change it all the time!"
"Popples aren't much fun, Mom,
When it's ninety-nine!
"Spill 'em. Fill 'em. Spill 'em. Fill 'em.
I ain't got nothin' but hutch time, eight days a week.
"Eight days a week, I'm workin' for the bunnies.

Eight days a week.
Eight days a week."
