Der Erlkönig has big Todolf energy:

"Du liebes Kind,

Komm geh mit mir,

Gar schöne Spiele,

Spiele ich mit dir"

("My dear child, come go with me, the most beautiful games, we shall play together")

I love the thing that kids (& humans of all ages) do where they change the lyrics of a popular piece of media. Funniest phenomenon on planet earth
