old macdonald and his amazing farm

Every once in a while Ryan sings Old MacDonald with Elijah, who has by now figured out what's going on. He gets to choose the animals on the farm, and he invariably chooses "Goggie!" the first time. And the second time. And the third time. And so on. After a while, Ryan protests. After all, Old MacDonald has got to have more animals on the farm than just dogs. Elijah still can't say the names of most animals, so he designates them by the sounds they make. Turns out, Old MacDonald has quite an eclectic farm. Besides having a sheep (requested by "baaa"), he has a Russian goose ("ga-ga-ga"), a lion ("arrrrr"), and... a light ("tla"). Unfortunately, we are not quite sure what sound lights make, so the song usually stops at this point.
