Well, I am working on a community arts project at the Hollybush Community Centre, Stoke-on-trent, and today we were singing this very song with the kids making their own verses. We are working towards a street party to celebrate 60 years since the end of WWII, and the preparation involves teaching the little ones the songs of the old timers. So the Quartermaster's Stores lives on.
   The predictability of rhymes makes the kids efforts much the same as those of 60 years ago.
Peas peas
Smudging on your knees

Beans beans
Dropping on your jeans

Chips chips
Sticking to your lips.

Mash mash
Giving you a rash

(continuity of culture!)
