Disgusting rhymes you sang in the school play ground or yard (primary or secondary)

We sang (in primary (mid 70s to early 80s):

Yellow belly custard
Green snot pie
All mixed together with a dead dog's eye.
Slap it on a butty,
Nice and thick,
Wash it all down with a cup of cold sick.

Utterly minging, I know. 🤮 We were such foul wee buggers. 😅

Were there any other horrors doing the rounds at your school(s)? No mean/nasty stuff please. 🙂

On top of spaghetti, all covered in blood.
I shot my poor teacher, with a 44 stud.
I went to her wake the very next day, some people threw flowers, I threw a grenade.
I went to the funeral, but she didn't look dead.
So I took my bazooka, and blew off her head.

Jesus Christ!
SuperStar!!!
Came down from heaven on a Yamaha!
Did a skid.
Killed a kid!
Ripped his bollocks on a dustbin lid!!!

😂

Georgie Best
Superstar
Walks like a women and he wears a bra.

I work with little kids and we often sing rhymes. I cannot do Jack and jill because my brain keeps defaulting to:
Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water
Jill forgot to take the pill
And now they have a daughter.

Jesus Christ Almighty!
A mouse ran up my nighty
He bit my tit, and made me shit
Jesus Christ Almighty!

@InvisibleDuck yes!

Where have you been all day
Henry my son?
Where have you been all day
My beloved one?

Woods, dear mother,
Woods dear mother,
Oh mother come quick
I feel so sick
And lay me down to die

What did you do there
Henry my son
What did you do there
My beloved one?

Ate, dear mother,
Ate, dear mother.
Oh mother come quick I feel so sick
And lay me down to die.

What did you eat there,
Henry my son?
What did you eat there,
My beloved one?

Worms, dear mother,
Worms, dear mother.
Oh mother come quick,
I feel so sick
And lay me down to die.

What colour were the worms,
Henry, my son?
What colour were the worms,
My beloved one?

Green and yellow!
Green and yellow!
Oh mother come quick,
I feel so sick
And lay me down to die.

They weren’t worms
Henry my son
They were snakes
My beloved one.

Green and yellow!
Green and yellow!
Oh mother come quick
I feel so sick
And lay me down to die!

Ohhhh memories! The version I was taught went-
“where have you been all day, my currant bun?”

and

”Eels, dear mother…
Eels, dear mother…”

then -
“Those eels were snakes you ate”
(etc)

My friend Billy
Had a ten foot willy
He showed it to the woman next door
She thought it was a snake
And hit it with a rake
And now it’s only five foot four.

Quite mild by comparison with some!

Where have you been all day
Henry my son?

That sounds like the traditional ballad 'Lord Randal':

'O where ha' you been, Lord Randal, my son?
And where ha' you been, my handsome young man?'
'I ha' been at the greenwood; mother, mak my bed soon,
For I'm wearied wi' hunting, and fain wad lie down.

Said in a very posh voice:
"Ahem, ahem!
Kiss my bum
If I have a party, you won't come
Bread without butter
Tea without sugar,
Ahem,ahem!
Kiss my bum!"
