One that got me in trouble (and one that would get MY kid in trouble, too) is this version of The Addams Family that's gone around since the show was first on:
The Addams family started

ReplyDeleteThe Addams family started
When Uncle Fester farted
He farted through the keyhole
And paralysed the cat.
The cat fell down the dunny
it wasn't very funny
it cost a lot of money
to get the darn thing out!
(Of course, having never watched The Addams family - grew up in a no-tv household - this may be the actual themesong and I would not know; though I doubt it is.)
OMG I DO remember that! I can't even guess how long ago, but maybe like late 60s? Early 70s? Although I seem to remember now line 3 as "That's why they're all retarded." Great jumping jeeps, that must have been 5th or 6th grade at the latest!
