I'm telling

Skipping Game: Mathew Mark, Luke and John. Please will the next one follow on. My bonny lies over the ocean My bonny lies over the sea My Daddy lay over my Mummy And that's how they got little me (Took me years to figure out this one) Oh dear what can the matter be? Three old ladies locked in the lavatory They were there from Friday to Saturday What a Calamity! Hand clapping game: My Mummy says I never should Play with the gypsies in the wood If I did then she would say Naughty little girl to disobey! Rude verses: Please keep off the grass And let the ladies pass Here comes the Keeper Sliding on his A*s no questions Tell no lies Have you ever ever seen a gentleman doing up his Flies are a nuisance Bees are worse and that's the end of my little verse. Did you mean something like that?

Do wake me up when you're done with your TELLING I shall start mine --- wouldn't let you sleep then

Well, I remember that the comparison of rubber to glue was quite popular amongst my circle of friends......every now and then I still find remnants of hurtful comments which in a fit of anger I yelled at someone, not realizing they had transformed into their rubber state, thereby rendering my rude comments to them useless and having them bounce back and stick to me.......because as everyone knows, when a comment recipient has transformed into their rubber state, the comment giver automatically transforms into their glue state.........unless of course you utter the magic phrase, "....INFINITY, NO GIVE BACKS!" which naturally render all rubber/glue situations and "I know you are but what am I's" absolutely harmless.

I'm tellin' mom!

This is the song that never ends, it just goes on and on my friend. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was and now they'll keep on singing it just because this is the song that never ends. . . There is another one that I can think of too, but the whole thing isn't coming to my mind right now (and to be honest, I'm kind of glad about that because I really don't need two of these kinds of things going through my mind at the same time.

I think I was fond of saying, "when I grow up..." I know I remember thinking that when I grew up, life would be better. I think I'm all grown up and life has not been better. Maybe it did for a brief moment, but it's been downhill for a while. In any case, it gives me a reason to stop saying it, grown up or not.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me - lordy I wish that were true!

Na na nana na is the most famous song of all. Looks like you pretty much covered them all. I off-hand can't think of any more. I'm sure the responses you get will trigger my memory. love it!

I remember hearing all the examples you gave but I also remember one more I can't think of any others lol But sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me....

The Miss Suzie patty cake songs and of course jump ropes songs like Cinderella dressed in yella made a mistake and kissed a snake... But you know many of these things are not acceptable in school anymore. I asked my oldest if they can say "Jane & John sitting in a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g, first comes love then comes a baby in the baby carriage ...." she said NO it's considered bullying and or a put down... not just normal school yeard banter.

Sike! Radicool. I know you are but what am I? That's my name don't wear it out. (When someone says "excuse me".) The bathrooms right down the hall. Can't remember the rest now.. get back to you if I do.

Sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me.

Inka dinka bottle of ink - cork fell off and you stink!! Ohhhhh - moded! (didn't kids use that in the 70's?) You're busted! X and Y, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G Can't think of many more . . . you took the good ones!!

I had a funny classmate... the funny thing is not what he says..but what he does... he used to sit on the lap of his pals and does this nasty job...."He just Farts"... thanks for sharing... have a great day/night...

My mother can beat up your mother....that was popular when I was in high school...as far as what the kids said I really can't remember as I was probably tuning them out when they said it! LOL

“I don’t wanna play this game anymore!” That is a phrase I used frequently when I was a kid because I used to become bored very quickly. I may not say it anymore nowadays but I sure think it, especially when I’m trying to catch up on the housework!

Happy birthday to you..you belong in a zoo Trick or treat I'll kick your butt! Sticks and stones When I grow up...I'm gonna be a vet

Favorite lines as a kid where; No he did it! sticks and stones maybe break my bones but words can't hurt me! I still use that one as an adult! Na na na your it! First comes love,then comes marrige then comes baby in the baby carriage! those are some of the lines from my children! Some of the bads one where;you're weird! You are fat! You have a big butt! (I have had a weight problem all my life but it wasn't bad as a child like it is today!) My parents even had one for me when either one was angry at me and it was "you're stubborn ae your mother/father!" I was but worse and it has helped me out through the years!

I remember all of those, except for the rubber/glue thing. Funny you should bring this up, because I was just thinking how differently we all acted when we were children. I remember we used to think "stupid" and "shut up" were bad words. We also would say "Ooh, you're in trouble!" I can't seem to remember many at the moment, so I'll just leave it at that.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but name will never hurt me. Ha, or was that adults who use to say that to me. See I can't remember.
