This is an old 'traditional' Scout song, sung (yes) to the tune of 'Villikins & his Dinah' As i was out walking with my Uncle Jim, Somebody threw a tomato at him. "Tomatoes don't hurt you", he said with a grin "Only that one was 'specially wrapped in a tin". The song 1 2 3 4.....4 3 2 1 etc. encompasses the above verse very nicely, and there are DOZENS more 'floating' humorous verses that also fit very well. e.g. "Jonah the Prophet was caught by a Whale By whome he was swallowed or so goes the tale. But then after three days and nights Jonah found The truth that "You can't keep a good fellow down". and F A R too many more !!
