Modern kids' rhymes

Hi

My 7-year-old grand-daughter has been educating me on the playground rhymes of modern children.

The first one was quite appropriate to me :!:

Example 1

Grandma, Grandma, sick in bed,
She called for the doctor, and the doctor said,
'Grandma, Grandma, you ain't sick :!:
All you need is a walking stick :!:

With an up-shake, shake, shake, shake, shakety shake,
With a down-shake, shake, shake, shake, shakety shake,
To the back, to the front, to the s- s- side,
To the back, to the front, to the s-s-side.

( Shake your hips appropriately!)

She never went to college,
She never went to school,
So you can bet yer bottom dollar
She can wriggle like a fool :!: :!:

( Wriggle appropriately!)



Example 2.

Pepsi-Cola, Pepsi- Cola,
Ee-i, Ee-i,
The boys have got the muscles,
The teacher can't count,
The girls have got the sexy legs,
You'd better watch out!
You've got to hypnotise yer,
Paralyse yer
Turn around and faint!!

( At that point, you have to do a hand-stand!! Easy, isn't it? )

Example 3.

Salt, pepper, Scooby-Dooby Doo!
The boys go kiss kiss,
The girls go WHOOooooo!!!!!

Where's your father?
Round the corner,
Drinking lager,
Turn around and faint!!

( Now do another hand-stand!!!)

All to be said in a singy-songy voice !!!!!

Good luck with the handstands!
