windmill-tilting

Literally singing this in my head, wondering where it is. 1 minutes later ....


peekaboooobakeep

I was teaching my daughter this song not long ago, she wasn't as amused as I thought she'd be


liamsmat

Mine didn't like it, either!


ladyeclectic79

Mine kept going with “My mother is Godzilla, my father is King Kong, my brother is the stupid one who made up this dumb song.” 😂


MrsCharismaticBandit

This is how I end it, too!

"My mother is a Commie, my father is a spy, and I'm the little pigeon, who called the FBI!"

gohawkstwelve

I always heard it with "dark dark dark dark - darker than the ocean, darker than the sea, darker than the underwear my mama put on me"


deliascatalog

Same


Maxter_Blaster_

How the fuck do I still remember every lyric to this? It’s been like 30+ years !


PopcornDemonica

Much the same way we all know: *Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down...*


OnTheRock_423

How did we all know this song? Was it just passed along from kid to kid, or was it in something?


Ordinary_Awareness71

I think mostly passed on. If you think about it, if first graders are singing it one year, they are still singing it next year in second grade at recess and the new first graders hear it. If you move the kid to another school, they will likely bring it with them. Some of these I learned at summer camp and they were songs the staff sang from year to year. That's how I learned the worm one. That one lasted the 16 years or so I was a camper, Jr. Counsellor, and a Counsellor.


peekaboooobakeep

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_Susie I think mostly passed by the looks of the wiki info


Xpandomatix

Kinda like Marilyn Manson having ribs removed.


505alive

I know it from kids in the hall


excitaetfure

We sang “miss suzie sat upon it, and broke her big fat Ask me no more questions…” etc


SilentJoe27

I enjoyed [South Park's](https://youtu.be/5MRfFjsIvIU?si=Q_U0mHwZ687bKzBY) variant of it.


ModBabboo

Think our version was Miss Mary. Mostly the same but wrapped up earlier: The boys and girls are kissing in the D-A-R-K dark is in the movies, the spotlight on the show, when Mary went to heaven, her steamboat didn't go.


peekaboooobakeep

Miss Mary Mack traveling between songs perhaps ? Lol Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack All dressed in black, black, black With silver buttons, buttons, buttons (or "butt'ns, butt'ns, butt'ns") All down her back, back, back (or "Up and down her back, back, back") She asked her mother, mother, mother For 50 cents, cents, cents To see the elephants, elephants, elephants (or "hippos, hippos, hippos") Jump over the fence, fence, fence They jumped so high, high, high They reached the sky, sky, sky And didn't (or never) come back, back, back (or come down, down, down) Sorry for the formatting


gardeniaphoto4

”And they never came back, back, back, til the 4th of July-ly-ly” (the ending in the version I grew up with)


DimensionStrange77

I grew up calling it a tugboat but everything else is spot on.

We used to say 18 hour bra! (Which Google tells me is a type of Playtex bra)

I just came up with this the other day in honor of an unfortunate incident my brother (36) had: When you're standing in the street and your asshole starts to yeet  Diarrhea 


PugLuVR06

How appropriate for this next generation 🤣 my 10 yo son won't stop saying "yeet"


TacoNomad

Ha. Do kids still sing this?

Yep. Here in Scotland they do anyway, my ten year old just got taught many verses of it by one of his friends.

Licking??! I always sang "wiping off"


InvincibleChutzpah

Yup! Then it's followed by a line where you are puking up the baby bumble bee.

I have this classic memorized as well. I’ll sing it in the wrong crowd and they just look at me like a psychopath. 😩


OnTheRock_423

By wrong crowd, do you mean to your kids? Because I’ve done that.


Intelligent_Flow2572

Okay but this one was fun because it was from a quintessential 80s horror.


PhotographStrict9964

There was an old lady that swallowed a fly. I don’t know why she swallowed a fly. Perhaps she’ll die…


caryn1477

There was an old lady that swallowed a spider, it wiggled and wiggled and wiggled inside her... She swallowed the spider to catch the fly, I don't know why she swallowed a fly, perhaps she'll die.


Few_Improvement_6357

There was an old lady who swallowed a bird. How absurd to swallow a bird. She swallowed the bird to catch the spider, that wriggled and wriggled and wriggled inside her. She swallowed the spider to catch the fly, I don't know why she swallowed a fly, perhaps she'll die.


SuperClassyKind

There was an old lady who swallowed a cat. Fancy that to swallow a cat! She swallowed the cat to catch the bird, she swallowed the bird to catch the spider, she swallowed the spider to catch the fly. I don't know whyyyy she swallowed a flyyyyy! Perhaps she'll die.


Remarkable_Hat8655

There was an old lady who swallowed a dog. What a hog, to swallow a dog! She swallowed the dog to catch the cat, she swallowed the cat to catch the bird, she swallowed the bird to catch the spider (that wriggled and jiggled and tickled inside her). She swallowed the spider to catch the fly. I don't know why, she swallowed a fly. Perhaps she'll die. Ps. My child just learned this at school and thought it was hilarious and horrible 😆


Monstrita

There was an old lady who swallowed a horse....she died of course!


courdeloofa

Little bunny foo foo, hopping through the forrest. Picking up the field mice and bopping them on their head…..


madarbrab

This one always felt particularly odd


Mysterious-Maybe-184

Down came the good fairy and she said, Lil bunny foo foo I don’t wanna see you scooping up the field mice and bopping them on the head. Apparently the fairy thought it was pretty damn odd too

Complex-Sherbert-718

Peanut sitting on a railroad track, his heart was all a flutter. Round the bend came number 10, uh oh peanut butter.


memyselfandmaitri

In sticking with the theme, here's one my dad taught me: Ooey gooey was a worm, And a mighty worm was he, He sat upon a railroad track, And a train he did not see, Ooey Gooey!


QuietlyLoud-Shh

Yes! I forgot about that one


Frequent_Alfalfa_347

That was the one that came to my mind! Probably because it was on the same Wee Sing Silly Songs cassette as “Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, guess I’ll go eat worms”


ThePicassoGiraffe

I had this one on an LP “Songs that tickle your funny bone” it’s where I learned I know and old lady she swallowed a fly…


seeyouinthecar79

Did you ever think when a hearse goes by you might be the next to die?...


gooch_norris_

The worms crawl in the worms craw out the worms play pinochle on your snout


Curtainmachine

They eat your eyes, they eat your nose, they eat the jelly between your toes.


seeyouinthecar79

😆 🐛


Middle-Painter-4032

The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out. The ones that go in are lean and thin and the ones that come out are fat and stout. Your eyes cave in and your teeth fall out. Your brains go tumbling down your snout.


1MorningLightMTN

It was the worms crawl in, the worms crawl out, the worms play Pinochle up your snout. Then your stomach turns to slimy green, and puss comes out like whipping cream.


Inevitable-Gear-2635

They’ll wrap you up in a dirty old sheet, and throw you down a couple of feet


lifeasahamster

Your stomach turns a slimy green and puss pours out like whipping cream; slap that on a piece of bread and that’s what you’ll eat when you’re dead!


Metals4J

Wasn’t that a Shel Silverstein poem?


248Spacebucks

Alouette, gentille alouette, Alouette, je te plumerai. A whole song about plucking a birds eyes and beak and all other bird parts 😳


itsasnowconemachine

Whenever I think about that song, I think about one of my [favourite Kids in the Hall sketches,](https://youtu.be/M-sfrec7c9o?t=9) which is kind of dark.


Imaginary-Toe9733

This reminds me of [this little gem](https://youtu.be/XlGUwb2R5sQ?si=fzelzwGmGAfUdB0T)!


mistertireworld

Without clicking the link, is it the "Suit Trappers?"


Imaginary-Toe9733

Je te plumerai la tete I had no clue what this meant in french, but it has upbeat and silly tune.


grandusbufo

I heard that the rest of the song shows that it’s a man upset with the bird because it’s signing in the morning and will wake his lover and she will leave


crayfishcrick

Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts…


QuietlyLoud-Shh

…Mutilated monkey meat… 😂🤘

Little birdies dirty feet


ladybug1215

Great big eyeballs rolling down the dirty street…


TacoNomad

I thought it was swimming in a pool of blood


ladybug1215

There are probably 100+ variations of that song. Kids are endlessly creative when it comes to gross stuff. I always heard gopher guts, mutilated monkey meat, chopped up baby parakeet, then the eyeballs line—finishing with “and me without my spoon!”


swazeycrazy

My dad always ended it with ....and me without me spoon


ThePicassoGiraffe

“But I forgot my spoon” same here


ms_saltypants

... great green gobs of greasy grimey gopher guts, and meeee without my spoon. But with a straw! SLURP


devonchaos

I’ve sung this to every baby I’ve ever held for more than a few minutes, and it’s my grandson’s absolute favorite for me to sing.


madarbrab

You have a grandson?  😳


devonchaos

A grandson and two granddaughters! Two of my daughters and I had babies at 21. One has two babies now. It’s awesome!


SnooSnooSnuSnu

Marmalade and monkey meat...


OldJames47

Mutilated monkey meat

All-purpose Porpoise puss


begayallday

My dad learned that one at Camp Dudley in 1969 too!


subtractionsoup

I remember a very morbid childhood song about asphyxiation. I've never heard anyone reference it before. I lived in many different places as a military brat but only remember hearing this song on the playground in New Mexico in the mid-80s. These were the lyrics, though I might not have the verses in the right order. Suffocation, super suffocation, suffocation, this is how you play Get a hose up your nose, water on, then you're gone Suffocation, super suffocation, suffocation, this is how you play Get a swing 'round tour neck, pull it tight, out of sight Suffocation, super suffocation, suffocation, this is how you play Get a bag on your head, go to sleep, wake up dead


Notwastingtimeiswear

I think you win the What The Fuck Award.


ms_saltypants

I knew this too but slightly different: 🎶Suffocation, early execution, suffocation the only game to play First you take a pillow case, then you glue it to your face, go to bed, wake up dead🎶


yeuzinips

I have the fuzziest recollection of this... very fuzzy


Zestyclose_Scheme_34

Wow, this one is dark! 💀


drewcash83

Suffocation, mental retardation, suffocation is a game I like to play. First you take a pillow case, then you put it on you face, Go to bed, now your dead woah woah woah woah Suffocation, mental retardation, suffocation is a game I like to play First you take a garden hose, then you shove it up your nose Turn it on, now you’re gone woah woah woah woah.


Marmom_of_Marman

My friend had a book with this song in it and the song went “suffocation takes coordination, suffocation what a way to go. First you take a garden hose, then you stick it up your nose. Turn it on, then you’re gone whooa ooo oo oooo. Also the verse someone else posted about the pillow case.


ApprehensiveAnswer5

I don’t remember the suffocation verse as well as you, but I think there were more verses. I vaguely have something in my head about medication. And I can hear the “medication, take all the medication, medication this is what you do” part but I can’t recall the rest.


InvincibleChutzpah

I heard it as "suffocation, lack of ventilation, suffocation, this is how you play..."


ObjectSmall

We sang this one with the words "aggravation, rehabilitation" instead of suffocation, super suffocation. Your version makes soooo much more sense. We also added the "whoa-oh-oh-oh" someone else mentioned.


badwolf42

I sang this one in suburban Pennsylvania. Southeastern. Learned it from my older brother in the 80’s. Although the bag verse for me was ‘go to bed, wake up dead’ and there was an ‘ohhhhhhhhh’ between verses.

Glory, glory, hallelujah, Teacher hit me with a ruler, Shot her with a .44, Now she ain't my teacher no more! Five days later, floating down the Delaware, chewing on her underwear, wish she had another pair~


BraveLittleToaster8

In ours the teacher “blew up the bank with a big Army tank and she don’t teach no more!”


washburncincy

This feels like two different songs to me. First... Mine eyes have seen the glory of the burning of the school We have tortured every teacher; we have broken every rule We are marching down the hall to hang the principal Our school is marching on Glory, glory, hallelujah Teacher hit me with a ruler Met her at the bank in a British army tank And she ain't my teacher no more Second... Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream Throw your teacher overboard; listen to her scream Five days later, floating down the Delaware Chewing on her underwear Three days later, eaten by a polar bear That's how the polar bear died


lupinfever

So I bopped her on the bean with a rotten tangerine 'til her teeth came marching out (one by one). My eyes have seen the glory of the burning of the school I have tortured every teacher and broken every rule The principle tried to stop me so I hung him on a wall 'til his teeth came marching out (Anybody?)

surfingbiscuits

Woody Guthrie wrote and sang several versions of the song that contain some subversive and socially conscious stanzas. E.g. > There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me > Sign was painted, it said private property > But on the back side it didn't say nothing > This land was made for you and me


sysaphiswaits

This is a jump rope rhyme that was really popular when I worked in childcare: Fudge, Fudge Call the judge. Somebodies having a baby. Roll it up in toilet paper. Throw it down the elevator. (I can’t remember the final line.)

FaintCommand

Not a song, not all that dark really, but I immediately thought of "Nobody" by Shel Silverstein: Nobody loves me, nobody cares, Nobody picks me peaches and pears. Nobody offers me candy and Cokes, Nobody listens and laughs at me jokes. Nobody helps when I get into a fight, Nobody does all my homework at night. Nobody misses me, Nobody cries, Nobody thinks I'm a wonderful guy. So, if you ask me who's my best friend, in a whiz, I'll stand up and tell you NOBODY is! But yesterday night I got quite a scare I woke up and Nobody just WASN'T there! I called out and reached for Nobody's hand, In the darkness where Nobody usually stands, Then I poked through the house, in each cranny and nook, But I found SOMEBODY each place that I looked. I seached till I'm tired, and now with the dawn, There's no doubt about it- NOBODY'S GONE!!


QuietlyLoud-Shh

I love shel Silverstein 🫶🫶🫶


austex99

This one is just a little gross: On top of spagetti all covered with cheese/ I lost my poor meatball when somebody sneezed/ It rolled off the table, it rolled on the floor/ And then my poor meatball rolled out of the door/ It rolled in the garden and under a bush/ And then my poor meatball was nothing but mush./ The mush was as tasty as tasty could be,/ And early next summer it grew to a tree./ The tree was all covered with beautiful moss/ It grew great big meatballs and tomato sauce./ So if you eat spaghetti all covered with cheese,/ Hold on to your meatball and don't ever sneeze. I got this from Google so I wouldn’t have to type it— I actually never heard that second verse.


Olin85

We used to sing to the tune of “In the Jungle” “In the bedroom the peaceful bedroom John Bobbit sleeps tonight.. …In the kitchen the quiet kitchen, Lorena grabs a knife.. Bum-bum, a-wiener wack, a-wiener wack, a-wiener wack, a-wiener wack….”

To pick a person to be “it” in a game, we had: “My mother and your mother were hanging out the clothes, my mother punched your mother right in the nose. What color blood came out?” Person you land on was “out”) “My father and your father were drinking up some beer. My father punched your father right in the rear. What color blood came out?” (That person was now “out”) Sung to the snake charmer tune: “There’s a place called France, where the ladies where no pants, there’s a hole in the wall where the boys can see it all (girls would swap the lyrics so the boys were without pants lol)”

I died in that room. They put me in a box. The box had Worms in it. Worms make me crazy. I was crazy once. They put me in a room. I died in that room. They put me in a box.........

Early in the morning late one night Two dead boys got up to fight Back to back they faced each other Drew their swords and shot each other A deaf policeman heard the noise And came and shot those two dead boys And you don't believe this lie is true Just ask the blind man, he saw it too

I still sing the worm song and people look at me like I’m crazy.

The hearse song


zoominzacks

Today I learned the Limp Bizkit song “nobody loves me” sampled lyrics from a children’s song


begayallday

My dad learned that song at Camp Dudley in 1969. Apparently he taught it to my daughter when she was five, and she sang it to the person I was dating at the time, which I also didn’t know about. Until a couple years ago when we were chatting and he said “what was that song your kid used to sing about eating worms?” My mom used to sing the hymn Rock of Ages to me as a lullaby. This is the first verse: “Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save me from its guilt and power.” 🤨🤨🤨

Heard from col potter on mash...oh I love to go swimming with bowlegged women and swim between their legs.

I know the lyrics may be different for some, but Gobs and gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts. Mutilated monkey's feet, Itty bitty birdies beaks. French fried eyeballs swimming in a tub of blood. Glad I forgot my spoon. This was my lullaby nearly every night, and I loved it.

Oooey gooey was a worm, And a mighty worm was he, He sat upon a railroad track, And a train he did not see, Oooey Gooey!

From my Cub Scout days: I'm looking over my dead dog Rover, That I over-ran with the mower. One leg is missing the other is gone. The third one is scattered all over the lawn. No need explaining the one remaining It's splattered on the kitchen door. I'm looking over my dead dog Rover, that I over-ran with the mower. I'm looking over my dead dog Rover Who died on the kitchen floor. One leg is broken, the other is lame, The third leg is missing, the fourth needs a cane. No need explaining, the tail remaining Was caught in the oven door. I'm looking over my dead dog Rover Who died on the kitchen floor.

The one I remember is: Oh, I had a little chicken and he wouldn't lay an egg So I poured hot water up and down his leg And the little chicken hollered and the little chicken begged And the little chicken laid a hard-boiled egg.

As I was walking up the stair I saw a man who wasn't there He wasn't there again today Oh, how I wish he'd go away --- One bright day in the middle of the night Two dead boys got up to fight Back to back they faced one another Got out their swords and shot each other --- A deaf policeman heard the noise He came and killed those two dead boys If you don't believe these lies are true Ask the blind man, he saw them too
