Arty Farty Had A Party

In 1980's Belfast the Batman rhyme went

Jingle Bells, Batman Smells
Robin Ran Away
He did a fart, behind a cart,
and blew up the IRA.

There was also

Popeye the sailor man,
He lives in a frying pan
He burnt his willy
cos he was so silly
Popeye the sailor man.

And

Hi ho Hi Ho
It's off to work we go
with a bucket and spade and a hand grenade
Hi Ho Hi Ho Hi Ho

These are actually more ridiculous than I remember.
 
There was an orange cat called Billy.
He sat upon the fender.
And every time the Pope went by,
He'd cry out: No Surrender!
 
One from my infants/junior school:

Irly whirly custard
green snot pie
all mixed together with a dead dogs eye
Slap it on a butty and eat it quick
and wash it down with a cup of cold sick.

Mmmm!
 
Spread by the CPGB in Clydeside during WWII.

Forget King Billy and the Pope.
Uncle Joes our only hope.
