'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star' is NOT by Mozart. This is a myth. He did, however, write a set of variations on the tune later used for the song. Mozart would have known the tune under its original French title 'Ah, vous derai-je, mamam'.
The theme of Mozart's set of 12 variations, K 265 is the French children's song "Ah! Vous derai-je Maman." The tune has been used for many English songs including "Twinkle-Twinkle", "Baa Baa Black Sheep" and the "Alphabet song".
It is a common misconception that Mozart wrote Twinkle Twinkle Little Star at the age of four or five. He did not. This is the age he was when the original French folk song was written under the name of "Ah ! vous dirai-je, Maman", in 1761. Mozart did, however, write a series of variations on this melody when he was much older. The words to "Twinkle Twinkle" were penned by Jane Taylor, in 1806.
It was over 600!!!!!! So it would take a lot of space. But for a idea, it include "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" his unfinished Requiem Mass and many more.:)
Mozart performed a great many of his works himself.

Yes, they do. That happens often, for example many hymn tunes are associated with more than one set of words. Mozart composed a famous set of variations on the folk song "Ah, vous dirai-je, Maman", also known as "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".
