It’s a common type of children’s song, where things are added to the lyrics each verse and the chorus gets longer and longer. You might know There’s a Hole in the Bottom of the Sea, or a Worm in the Garden, or the AJR song Hole in the Bottom of my Brain.
Is this meant to be sung to the cadence of one of Tom Bombadil’s songs? I dunno why that’s just what felt right when I read it.

My father had this album on cassette growing up. I played it so much I wore out the tape. The unicorn song is straight fire.

I’m riffing on The Rattlin’ Bog.
A sort of folksy children’s song that builds to a silly degree with each verse.
It’s also a drinking song!
