We had this banned at school - can anyone explain why? It was a good little girls' private school, and I think we learned it from the BBC. It may simply be that it was out favourite, and we requested it too often, but that hint about the war might be a clue, I suppose. Rather like our student teacher of French being forbidden to continue to teach us "Il etait un petit navire" - the one where the little cabin boy actually gets et, as dfar as I can discover.#

Thanks for posting the full set of words - I've wanted to know them for ages.
