My mother recited your postman poem to me as a child growing up in the 70’s, but it went a little differently. Policeman, policeman Do your duty, Here comes Charlotte As a bathing beauty She can do the rumba She can do the splits She can lift her skirts As high as her hips. Here’s another she’d often recite Charlotte was a dancer, She danced for the king; And every time she danced, She wiggled everything. Stop! Cried the king, You can’t do that in here! Phooey, said Charlotte, And she kicked him in the rear.
