"The Baby Tree" song on a Jefferson Starship album is a great one:

there's an island way out in the sea
where the babies they all grow on trees
and it's jolly good fun to swing in the sun
but ya gotta watch out if you sneeze sneeze
ya gotta watch out if you sneeze

yeah you gotta watch out if you sneeze
while swinging up there in the breeze
you're liable to cough
you might very well fall off
and tumble down flop on your knees knees
tumble down flop on your knees

when the stormy winds wail
and the breezes blow high in a gale
there's a curious dropping and flopping and plopping
and fat little babies just hail hail
the fat little babies just hail

and the babies lie there in a pile
and the grownups they come after while
and they always pass by all the babies that cry
and take only babies that smile smile
take only babies that smile

even triplets and twins if they'll smile.....
