The Laughing Vulcan and His Dog

"The Laughing Vulcan and His Dog" is a piece of popular children's music, of the latter half of the 24th century, known to schoolchildren aboard the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D).

When Captain Jean-Luc Picard and three children were climbing an Enterprise-D turbolift shaft when the ship had been deemed powerless in 2368, Picard suggested they sing a song to get their minds off of their predicament. Marissa Flores suggested they sing "The Laughing Vulcan and His Dog", but Picard, unfamiliar with this song, suggested "Frère Jacques" instead.
