The Kiboomers

Baby Bumblebee

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
(Cup hands together as if holding bee)

I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee,
Ouch! It stung me!
(Shake hands as if just stung)

I'm squishing up the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
('Squish' bee between palms of hands)

I'm squishing up a baby bumblebee,
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Ooh! It's yucky!
(Open up hands to look at 'mess')

I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Won't my mommy be so proud of me,
(Wipe hands off on shirt)

I'm wiping off the baby bumblebee,
Now my mommy won't be mad at me!
(Hold hands up)

IANBU this is surely not an example to set to children to whom do I address my complaint?

Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me,
Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me,
Oh Sir Jasper do not touch me,
As she lay between the lily white sheets with nothing on at all!

At the camp I worked at we sung all sorts of awful, violent songs, but the manager drew the line at 'Brown Squirrel' in case it encouraged kids to shove peanuts up their nose.

ItsAdam · 21/08/2017 01:10

Nor would humpty be something you're allergic to if stung!

Some nursery rhymes are just plain weird, take baa baa black sheep, no true meaning of that has ever been given I don't believe! 1730 I think that one goes back!

Rowgtfc72 · 21/08/2017 07:12

Had forgotten about the red men song, thanks for the reminder!

Favourites were barges and the animal fair.

And yes, we licked and sicked our baby bumblebees too Grin

Danceswithwarthogs · 21/08/2017 07:25

Fuming?
Really?

Can't you just skip on a song you don't like?

The old lady who swallowed a fly is my particular bug bear....

Onemorestepalong · 21/08/2017 08:57

Can anyone remember the clapping song/rhyme, that was something like

Elvis Presley
Girls are sexy

Bread was wrapped in a fiver

I maybe mixing my rhymes now

Areyoufree · 21/08/2017 09:20

Can't believe no one's mentioned the classic 'Diarrhea, diarrhea' song yet...

minoandolphin · 21/08/2017 09:35

Areyoufree oh god, some charming boys were singing that at the tops of their voices outside our house. Wouldn't care but was suffering from pg related sickness at the time and it made me rather queasy...!

lljkk · 21/08/2017 09:36

Fish heads Fish heads... eat them up Yum!

MNers regularly brag about splatting real life spiders & OP is worrying about a song. You may Not fit in here, OP.

minoandolphin · 21/08/2017 09:37

One step

My name is...
Elvis Presley
Girls are sexy
Sitting in the backseat
Drinking Pepsi
Girl in the Navy
Had a baby
Wooooooo.....POW (high fives)

Think there are variations on that but that's the version my school did.

Teatowelfairy · 21/08/2017 09:50

Sitting in the backseat
Nudge nudge

minoandolphin · 21/08/2017 10:05

Teatowelfairy · 21/08/2017 10:10

Anyone used to do salt and pepper?
Girls line up on a step/low wall and sing,

Salt and pepper, Scooby dooby doo,
The boys go kiss kiss (make kissing sounds in place of saying kiss kiss and put one hand at a time over each boob)
The girls go wooo!
(Jump off step while lifting skirt to flash knickers)

CockacidalManiac · 21/08/2017 10:17

custardcreamplease · 21/08/2017 10:45

Haven't rtft but anyone posted this one?

My boyfriend gave me apples, my boyfriend gave me pears.
My boyfriend gave me (kiss kiss kiss) and i pushed him down the stairs.
He flew all over London, he flew all over France.
He flew all over the USA and he lost his underpants.

And then there was

Nobody likes me
Everybody hates me
Got to go away and eat worms....

4691IrradiatedHaggis · 21/08/2017 10:52

custardcreamplease · 21/08/2017 10:54

MissHavishamsleftdaffodil · 21/08/2017 10:55

Teatowelfairy

In my area it was the same until 'this is what he said said said'

then it was:

My name is El eye El eye
Chicken eye chicken eye
Wee Willie Witchy
My bum's itchy
If you want to scratch it
Throw it up and catch it
Indian chiefs go
Pow Wow

To be sung while doing a clapping rhyme at maniac speed. Grin

Urglewurgle · 21/08/2017 11:14

We definitely sicked up the bee.. And the peanut. And I remember the diarrhea song too, "
When it comes out of your bum
like a bullet from a gun
diarrhea diarrhea"

And we also used to sing:

"We are the teenage girls,
We wear our hair in curls,
We wear our dungarees above our sexy knees.

There is a boy next door,
He got me on the floor,
He counted one to three and stuck it into me.

My mother was surprised to see my belly rise,
My father jumped for joy it was a baby boy."

Glumglowworm · 21/08/2017 11:16

A friend taught me

Ee by gum does your belly touch your bum?
Do your tits hang low do they waggle to and fro?
Do you get a funny feeling when you piss upon the ceiling?
Ee by gum does your belly touch your bum?

Not one I teach the Brownies though!

lostfairydust · 21/08/2017 11:35

Areyoufree I came on this thread to mention the diarrhoea song - great mind think a like....

Comes out your bum like a bullet from a gun
Diarrhoea slip slip Diarrhoea slip slip
I was hiding up a tree and it ran down my knee
Diarrhoea slip slip Diarrhoea slip slip

gannyfallops · 21/08/2017 13:06

Do your balls hang low
Can you swing them to and fro
Can you tie them in a knot
Can you tie them in a bow
Can you swing em over your shoulder
Like a regimental soldier
Do your baaaaaaaaaaaaaaals hang low

gannyfallops · 21/08/2017 13:08

Balls even. I can spell despite the best efforts of my phone.

If it's any consolation, OP I got taught 'my father's a lavatory cleaner' on my first brownie camp aged 7
