The baby, Ana, and I were singing "Wheels on the Bus" today.

Well, I was singing, Ana was making helpful hints, and periodically the baby would clap.

We'd gone through the litany, and I asked Ana anyway "Is there anything else on the bus?"

Ana: The lions.
Me: Lions?
Ana: Yeah, lions.
Me: Okay. The lions on the bus- what do they say?
Ana: They wak.
Me: They roar?
Ana: They wak.
Me: They rock?
Ana: No, they wallllllk.
Me: Oh, they walk. So, the lions on the bus go walk walk walk, walk walk walk, walk wal- *giggling uncontrolably* Ana, they walk on the bus?
Ana: No! They walk outside!
Me: Have you... have you... have you ever seen lions walking when you're on the bus?
Ana: Yes! They walk!

And there you have it. How does one even represent that in this song, anyway?

Are you sure it wasn't "lines"? As in the line to get onto the bus?

Line and lion don't sound alike from Ana.
