In a classroom full of elementary school kids, a little boy needed to use the bathroom. He raised his hand and told the teacher, "I need to use the bathroom." Just then the school principal was walking by, and the teacher was very embarrassed. She told her students, "When you need to use the bathroom, just say, 'I want to sing a song', and I will know what you mean." So the little boy told his teacher, "Teacher, I want to sing a song.", and the teacher excused him to use the bathroom.
That
night, the little boy needed to use the bathroom in the middle of the
night. He told his father, "Father, I want to sing a song." His father
replied, "Don't be silly, go back to sleep." But the little boy persisted,
"Father, I really would like to sing a song."
The father told him again, "Go back to sleep, you can sing a song in the
morning." By now the little boy was desperate. "Father, please, please,
I must sing a song now!" The father, in an attempt to satisfy the boy said,
"Okay, go ahead and sing a song. But, sing quietly and sing into my ear."
The little boy, confused, complied with his fathers wishes and sang his
song quietly into his father's ear.
