my niece was about 5 when she skipped in from outside, heading straight for the bathroom, where she had some pretty pressing business. as she was passing the time, she sang a sweet song, "butt, butt, butt, butt, butt-butt buuuuuuuttttttt…"

she finished, flushed, washed and proceeded to skip out the way she came in… but just before she got outside, her mother, who was sitting quietly on the couch, just outside the bathroom, said, "ummm natalie. that was a nice song…"

natalie, clearly caught in a "naughy word incident" but who is also a very clever, quick-thinker replied, "oh, mommy that was the B-U-T song, not the B-U-T-T song!"

and off she skipped, clearly pleased with herself.
