When Kanga Puts Roo to Bed: A Heartwarming Bedtime Ritual
Lyrics
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
When Kanga is putting Roo to bed
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Reiteration of the act of Kanga putting Roo to bed
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Continuation of the bedtime routine
Everything must be just so
Emphasis on the need for everything to be orderly
Every bedtime tale must be told just right
Highlighting the importance of telling bedtime tales correctly
Every clock in the house must be wound up tight
Every clock must be properly wound up
That's what they do each and every night
Describing the nightly routine of Kanga and Roo
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Reiteration of Kanga putting Roo to bed
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Repetition for emphasis on the bedtime ritual
Every item must be checked
Checking of every item before bedtime
Teeth must be brushed and toys put away
Emphasizing the need to brush teeth and tidy up toys
Games must be saved for tomorrow's play
Games are saved for the next day
That's what they do at the end of the day
Summarizing the activities at the end of the day
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Reiteration of Kanga putting Roo to bed
When his bath is over
Transition to Roo's bath time
And the dirt from the day goes down the drain
Describing the cleansing process after a day's activities
Little Roo gets under the covers
Roo gets under the covers to rest
To rest his body and relax his brain
Highlighting the purpose of getting under the covers
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Returning to the bedtime routine
Everything must feel just right
Emphasis on the importance of feeling comfortable
Secrets are shared and plans are hatched
Sharing secrets and making plans during bedtime
Tummies are rubbed and backs are scratched
Rubbing tummies and scratching backs for comfort
Hugs are stolen and kisses are snatched
Expressing affection through stolen hugs and kisses
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Reiteration of Kanga putting Roo to bed
Hugs are stolen and kisses are snatched
Repetition of the affectionate actions during bedtime
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Highlighting the repeated nature of Kanga putting Roo to bed
When Kanga puts Roo to bed
Final repetition, emphasizing the regularity of Kanga putting Roo to bed
