We had a different version to Miss Lucy...

Mary had a little lamb, she thought it rather silly,
She threw it up into the air and caught it by it's...
Willie was a sheep dog sitting on the ground
Along came a bee and stung him on his....
Ask no questions tell no lies,
Ever see a p'liceman doing up his....
Flies are a nuisance, bugs are worse
And this is the end of my silly little verse.


On the penultimate day of school we used to sing a couple of wee ditty's:

One more day of school, one more day of sorrow,
One more day of this and that
We'll be home tomorrow.

We used to make up the rest of the verses, usually about some teacher we all loved to hate.

Then there was the old wartime favourite:

Hitler, only had one ball
The other was in the Albert Hall

It went on for a bit (memory fading here) but it ended something like ...and Goeble's had no balls at all...

Not only did we not have a clue what these "balls" were, (I certainly didn't), we didn't even know who Hitler was when we first learnt it.

Anyone know the rest of these?
