Thread Name: I have lost my underwear & other underwear songs
Subject: RE: I have lost my underwear
I found these two rhymes on THIS wonderful thread of children's rhymes:
"Here are some of my memories from summer camp which I didn't see here:
Oh I wear my pink pajamas In the summer when it's hot And I wear my flannel nightie In the winter when it's not And sometimes in the spring And sometimes in the fall I jump between the sheets With nothing on at all
Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep Glory, glory what a wonderful way to sleep With nothing on at all
and, to the tune of "God Bless America":
God bless my underwear My only pair Stand beside them And guide them Through the wear and the tear of the wash From the washer To the dryer To the clothesline In the air God bless my underwear My only pair
Kind of tame compared to Miss Susie, but apparently of some historical interest. One I never thought I'd forget but seem to have done just that is that school song to the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic; can't remember if it was celebrating the last day of school or promoting arson or something even more malevolent.
Oh well; sometimes senior moments suck donkey droppings."
