There's a marvellous study of this type of physical progression song here http://www.mustrad.org.uk/articles/dungheap.htm. Click on the number 14 at the left hand side and you will find that the genre and the idea go back centuries. I have heard a Royal Navy version to the tune of "Alouette", i.e - How I love your curly top, etc - How I love your furrowed brow, etc - How I love your criss-cross eyes, etc - How I love your broken nose, etc - How I love your squeezy lips, etc - How I love your scrawny neck, etc - How I love your swinging tits, etc - How I love your withered hips, etc - How I love your knick-knock knees, etc - How I love your pigeon toes, etc Pure poetry!
