He ends up being asked to pick up the soap too, I suspect...

Many thanks. Even for Mudcat this was lightning fast. And yes, I do know the difference between the past and present tense of passer.

It's indeed the title of the song. First recording (1963) and lyrics you can't stamp as literature!

That isn't the title of the song, just the first line of the chorus. I heard a few lines from it today and I gather it's about having a bath and being tickled. The refrain ends with something like "Gouzi, Gouzi". If there are mistakes in the thread title it's probably because of the damn autocorrect.
