Little Miss Primary Song Composer

Little Miss, who turns 4 on Friday, has written a Primary song in celebration of our pioneer heritage. Today, she taught it to me, Elmo, her Cabbage Patch Kid and Teddy. This is it...

We wanna be a sunbean, a sunbean, a sunbean.
We wanna be a sunbean.
The people walked and walked and walked and walked.
The people walked and walked.
They got catched by a whale, a whale, a whale.
They got catched by a whale.
The whale spit them out.
They got catched by another whale, another whale, another whale
they got catched by another whale.
The whale didn't spit them out this time, didn't spit them out this time, didn't spit them out this time.
So they prayed and prayed and prayed and prayed.
They prayed and prayed and prayed.
Then the whale's babies spit them out this time, spit them out this time, spit them out this time.
They landed on the sand.
And that's how you be a family.
Please repeat.

I have two thoughts about this - first, Senator Bob Bennett's dad got his start writing Primary songs, and then he got to be a senator AND the dad of a senator. So, she's got quite a career ahead of her. Second - Primary sounds like, although it is doctrinally challenged, it is much more fun than Relief Society. But I could have guessed that.
