Lately, when dropping off the female subordinate Claus at school, she has been proclaiming “See you later, alligator”. I usually respond with the normal “after while, crocodile”, but will occassionally offer a variant such as “toodle-oo, buckeroo”, or “bye-bye, butterfly”. A google search mainly turns up references to the lyrics of the Bill Haley and the Comets song, but I did find this list:
See you later, alligator
Do any of you teeming millions have any to add so that I can expand the variety of my responses and broaden my child’s horizons?
Thanks,

See you soon, you big baboon.

Gotta bail, Nightengale!
My mother would say, “After a bit, crock of shit.”
How now, Brown Cow
So sad, Galahad
None of which are appropriate or relevant to the OP. duh. Sorry, I just had another old rock n roll tune in mind, and sort of vomited these out.
I like to say “see ya later, crocodile”, then watch the waves of confusion rolling in.

In a while, crocodile

Of my own invention:
See you later, perpetrator.
After awhile, pedophile.
And a friend of mine always says “Bye sickle.”
I found two more:
Gotta go, buffalo.
Can’t stay, blue jay.
And if we don’t strictly adhere to the animal theme we can do things like:
See you soon, macaroon.

Adios, amoeba.
that reminds me of
And at our house, putting our boys down for bed, there’s always:
“Good night, sleep tight, and don’t let the bedbugs bite.”
