kid tunes :: kimya dawson

kimya dawson , who identifies first as a mother and as a musician and artist second, will follow up the juno soundtrack , on which she and the moldy peaches were prominently featured, with a new album of children's music called alphabutt .

the album is due out in early september and includes songs with titles such as "i like bears," "wiggle my tooth," and "pee pee in the potty," but our favorite out of the gate is probably "we're all animals," on which dawson sings: "sit out in the cold and i sing songs / the hair on my legs is like wearing long johns / i wish there was more hair on my hands and my arms / because i can't wear gloves when i play guitar."
