Blackbird Nursery Rhyme
Rhyme
Blackbird

The Butcher, The Baker, The Candlestick Maker

A few weeks ago, while I was going about my business, a thought came into my head. Not as uncommon as it might sound, but it was a fairly momentous thought, nevertheless. The thought concerned the nursery rhyme, 'Rub A Dub Dub', which involves three men: a butcher, a baker, and a candlestick maker. The version of the rhyme which I remember from my childhood went something like this (pulled from a Wikipedia page).

One of the most well known English nursery rhymes is Sing a Song of Sixpence and it includes the line ‘four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie'. This dates back to the 16th century when. As well as in other nursery rhymes there are many interpretations of this song. Possibly there is a relationship to the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII. In this case the black birds would be the monks or priests, usually dressed in black, who started to sing (a scornful way to say that they cried) when the cake, the monasteries.

Rub a dub dub,
Three men in a tub,
And who do you think they be?
The butcher, the baker,
The candlestick maker.
They all sailed out to sea.

You are correct in deducing that this is, indeed, quite a random thought. Fortunately, such thoughts come into my head just often enough to keep my life reasonably interesting. The odd thing about this particular random thought is that I hadn't thought of that particular rhyme for years, and the only portion I remembered was the line, 'The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker.' Even more amazing is the fact that, after the thought entered my head, I automatically attempted to fabricate some underlying and philosophical meaning to account for the seemingly disjointed nature of the rhyme.

This is what I realized:

Blackbird Nursery Rhyme Lyrics

Throughout history there have been three kinds of people necessary in order to facilitate major change in any given society. The 'butcher' is the person willing to take whatever action necessary, despite the implications or nature of the act, in order to cause or further change. The 'baker' is the person who takes what he has, despite how little or how much that may be, and uses it to support the others in the cause. And last, but by no means least, the 'candlestick maker' is the person who illuminates the darkened path leading to change, and who keeps a beacon of light constantly burning to light the way for others to follow.

Four And Twenty Blackbirds Poem

It's interesting, isn't it? All that from a phrase that popped into my mind while standing in my living room one day. Some people might say that I read too much into things.
