Row Your Boat Song

Roll, roll, roll your joint
twist it at the end,
take a puff, that's enough
and pass it to a friend.

Mary Had A Little Lamb Rhyme

Marry had a little lamb
it's fleece was black as coal,
and every time it jumped a fence
you'd see it's pink ass.hole.

Mother Hubbard Rhyme

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cubbard
to fetch her poor dog a bone.
But when she bent over,
Rover took over
And the bitch got a bone of her own!

:D :D

I'm trying to find the Private Eye version of nursery rhymes - sort of update of the traditional N.R. They're very funny. I have the mags somewhere.

sorry Hamish, actor/comedian Andrew Dice Clays stock and trade were x-rated nursery rhymes, be grateful he was never popular over there.

Yes that was one of the milder ones... here's one I learned in school

Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jill forgot to take her pill
And now they have a daughter

Very educational dontcha think? :D

Lads, it's not just a British thing.
Two of my sisters are working in social work, workshops for disadvantaged kids, etc in Ireland.
They've had to learn new nursery rhymes to complement the existing ones. So, whenever they sing "Baa baa black sheep", they have to follow it with a new one called "Baa Baa white sheep". I don't know the words, but it's total nonsense.
It's part of their training to work with kids. They had to do a course on it. So, a generation of kids is now being taught this PC nonsense. It's been going on for years in Ireland.

If anyone is interested, I'll get the words to "baa baa white sheep".
