I meant to share this story with that last example:

Three years ago I took my 10 and 11 year old nieces, their two girlfriends, and their 6 year old brother to a pizza shop. In addition to their pizza, I asked them what drink they would like to order. One after another each girl said "Pepsi" and my nephew looked at the girls and said the same thing. I said something like "Wow, you sure most like Pepsi". And one of my nieces said "It's because of that rhyme". I said "What rhyme?" {They already knew about my interest in children's rhymes}. And that's when I first heard that "girls are sexy/drinkin pepsi" line, although the example they shared was very different from this one and didn't mention Elvis Presley or any other famous person.

For the record, the rhyme that the girls recited in unison that day {and my nephew and I listened to} was similar to this one without the addition of the "Fudge fudge call the judge" independent rhyme that begins here with the "Wrap it up in toilet paper" phrase.
