Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Mademoiselle from Armentières
This is a version my grandmother's been singing for 50-plus years

The first marine he ate the bean
Parlez-vous
The second marine he ate the bean
Parlez-vous
The third marine he ate the bean
He pissed [or alternately farted]all over the submarine
Inky-pinky parlez-vous

This is probably a children's satire from WWII
