    Modern Day Children's Rhymes

    To <em>hell</em> with jack prat and jack and hill, when I was a kid this is the stuff I sang:

    1) Miss Mary Mack, mack mack
    All dressed in black, black black
    Wil silver buttons buttons buttons
    All down her back back back
    She can not read read read
    She can not write write write
    But she can smoke smoke smoke
    Her father's pipe pipe pipe
    She asked her mother mother mother
    For fifty cents cents cents
    To see the elephants elephants elephants
    Jump the Fence fence fence
    They jumped so high high high
    They reached the sky sky sky
    And didn't come back back back
    'Til the fourth of July!

    2) Jingle Bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg.
    Batmobile lost its wheel and the Joker got away!

    3) Batman's in the kitchen
    Robin's in the hall
    Joker's in the bathroom,
    Peeing on the wall!

    4) <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_Susie">Hello operator, a) Give me number nine</a>
    b) And if you don't connect me, I'll kick you in behind
    c) the 'frigerator, there was a piece of glass,
    d) Mary sat on it and broke her little
    e) Ask me no more questions, Tell me no more lies,
    f)And if you don't repeat me, I'll kick you in behind
    go to b)

    5) The princess pat (repeat each line)
    Lived in a tree
    And sailed across
    the seven seas
    She sailed across
    The channel two
    And took with her
    A rigabamboo
    A rigabamboo?
    Now what is that?
    It's red and gold
    And yellow too
    That's why it's called
    A rigabamboo.
    Now Captain Jack
    Had a mighty fine crew
    He sailed across
    The Channel two
    His ship did sink
    And yours will too
    If you don't take
    A rigabamboo.

    Note; if it's not in my book of children's stories and poems, it's not 'old'. So don't give me any crap about merrimack and the monitor or whatever.

    Milk milk lemonade, around the corner's where chocolate is made.

    I saw a bird (repeat each line)
    With a yellow bill!
    It sat right down
    On my window sill.
    I coaxed it in
    With a glass of lemonade.
    Then blew it up
    with a hand grenade!

    And variations thereof.

    The way I heard it was:
    "Jingle bells, Batman smells
    Robin laid an egg
    The Batmobile lost its wheel
    And Batgirl broke her leg."

    I hereby decree that my version is better because
    A. It rhymes
    And B. This is the way it was before The Simpsons came along and changed it to your version.

    3) Batman's in the kitchen
    Robin's in the hall
    Joker's in the bathroom,
    Peeing on the wall!
    I got put on restriction for singing this one to my mother.

    But this was the way it was in a Batman commercial for Christmas special a long time ago.

    <del>There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
    She had so many children she didn't know what to do
    She gave them some broth without any bread
    She whipped them all soundly and put them to bed

    Oh, Mother Goose, you slay me.</del>

    [rubah][edit-This post is STRICKEN by account of being in my book of children's stories and poems -rubah][/rubah]

    Don't tell me about a long time ago. I heard it the correct way before you were born. And that's longer than your long time ago.

    EDIT: And now, don't you look ridiculous with your quote including a typo that I obviously didn't make because it's not in my original post nor in the quote pyramid above?

    Listen, the version I learned has internal rhyme, and besides, egg and away pretty much DO rhyme. You just say it 'aig' and forget to say much of the g.

    And then there's the modified version that fits today's "don't beat your kids" standards.

    There was an old woman
    Who lived in a shoe
    She was a kindhearted mom
    Who knew exactly what to do

    She raised all her children
    With patience and love
    Never once did she give them
    A spank, shake or shove

    Her children all learned
    To be gentle toward others
    And good parents too
    When they became fathers and mothers

    From their days in the shoe
    They learned this about living
    Kindness, not force
    Is the gift that keeps giving

    It's much lamer than the original.
