I remember the verse, but not why we used to say it.
Ha! I remember that one Mups
And the answer is because we were children pushing the boundaries to find out where they were!

Re: Molly Vickers.....

Please look away now..

This is the one l remember the boys used to say at school.

Hot snot, bogey pie, all mixed up with dead duck's eye. Get some scabs, spread them thick, swallow it down with a hot cup of sick.

Horrible isn't it?

Re: Molly Vickers.....

I remember a few of these on here, they are funny. dont make sense but funny!
we used to sing a few whilst playing but they would be classed as racist now!
but no one stopped us when we were kids did they?
but when you read what you've written would you really teach your kids them?

No, I tried google but couldn't find anything. If my memory serves me right, it might have been by Roger McGough but not sure.

Maybe JBR can help us out with this one?

We had a slight variation on that one:

Hot snot, bogey pie, all mixed up with a dead dog's eye. Stir it, stir it, make it thick, wash it down with a cup of sick.

Re: Molly Vickers.....

Here's one my dad used to tell me.

Taffy was a Welshman,
Taffy was a thief;
Taffy came to my house
And stole a piece of beef.

I went to Taffy's house,
Taffy was not home;
Taffy came to my house
And stole a marrow bone.
