Molly Vickers.....

.....Wets her knickers.

That was the first line of a poem which we were taught at school but I can't remember the rest.

For years now, every time I have looked at my filing cabinet which is made by Roneo Vickers it has reminded me of it.

Does anyone know the full poem?

Re: Molly Vickers.....

Sounds like a skipping rhyme, or two ball...

Teddy bear teddy bear turn around
Teddy bear teddy bear touch the ground
Teddy bear teddy bear go upstairs
Teddy bear teddy bear say your prayers

What a memory!!!

And at the end of another (?) rhyme... Shirley Temple is a star, S -T- A - R

You'll love this site...

Re: Molly Vickers.....

Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, turn around etc for the skipping (or ball bouncing off a wall)

Never hear of Molly Vickers

There was an oh--so sophisticated rhyme from the schoolyard when I was about six

As I was going down the lane
I thought I smelled some kippers
I asked a lady what it was
She said I've wet my knickers

Ho hum. Weren't we funny? No, I don't think so either

Skinny Minnie Martin
Big banana feet
Went to the pictures
Took the back seat
When the picture started
Skinny Minnie farted
And blew all the other children off they're feet.

Re: Molly Vickers.....

Ask no questions
Tell no lies
I saw a Chinaman doing up his flies -
Flies are a nuisance,
Bugs are worse -
And that is the end of my little verse!


I remember the verse, but not why we used to say it.
