Educational songs started warping my mind back when Saturday morning cartoons were interspersed with Schoolhouse Rocks ditties about United States government and subtle grammar lessons that duped me into learning things I didn't care about at the time. If only the Internet could have delivered this collection into my consciousness before I became a jaded adult; I might have been blinded with science instead of fantasizing about science fiction. Three of the collections available here were performed by the songwriter responsible for playground sing-along, "On Top of Spaghetti." If you are a They Might Be Giants fan, you'll probably recognize "Why Does The Sun Shine." Play these for your own enjoyment or play them for your kids. What better way to subvert entertainment than with a little education?
