Bloomin' Marvellous

bloom and blossom!

Sung to the tune of “Frère Jacques.”

Rashy bottom, rashy bottom.
Flaky scalp! Flaky scalp!
Put some oil on it, or some soothing tonic.
Flakes all out, no more pout.


Bloom and Blossom, Bloom and Blossom,
Lovely creams! Lovely creams!
Gentle for the babies, and for pregnant ladies.
All sorts of balms, really are the bomb.

All so natural, all so natural,
Toxin free! Toxin free!
Specially made for mummy, and her growing tummy.
They’re all green, ecoclean.

Pretty boxes, pretty boxes,
To your door! To your door!
Soothing balms and lotions, lots of special potions,
We adore. Buy some more.
