The nursery rhyme Hush little baby is about a father promising a child rewards if he/she stays quiet like they are asked. I think that this nursery rhyme can relate to the plot of our film as the 17 year old girl Samantha has to keep quiet about her step father abusing her all these years and about her having an abortion to hide it. Also I think that it will be very effective as instead of us using music to add tension we are going to have a nursery rhyme playing instead which you would typically expect. Here are the lyrics for the nursery rhyme:
Hush, little baby, don't say a word, Papa's gonna buy you a mocking bird
And if that mocking bird don't sing, Papa's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring turns to brass, Papa's gonna buy you a looking glass
And if that looking glass gets broke, Papa's gonna buy you a billy goat
And if that billy goat don't pull, Papa's gonna buy you a cart and bull
And if that cart and bull turn over, Papa's gonna buy you a dog named Rover
And if that dog named Rover wont bark, Papa's gonna buy you a horse and cart
And if that horse and cart fall down, well you'll still be the sweetest little baby in town.
