Thank you!

Nursery rhymes are simply witty statements that can easily become quite technical. Your obviously drawing that conclusion from Right (Wrong) and Madman's War both of which use standard nursery rhyme techniques (limericks and repetition of thought).

Andrew Bird, in fact, uses the same techniques as me. His song "Tenuousness" is very nursery-rhyme like in the way he uses assonance and consonance in his music.
