Liverpudlian nonsense prose

OH heywood I`m going to do my grumpy old woman impression now( it`s getting easier all
 the time!)
When " mum " is on her mobile chatting to or texting friends and not really interacting with her child I suppose there is not much point, but if the little one IS facing mum there is a little more chance mum may talk to  her baby.What a shame---. so many chances to pass on information and knowledge not taken up.

 I  would also  like to point out the danger mothers put their baby's in while chatting/ texting on their mobiles while pushing baby's across roads on 2 occasion recently i have had to brake hard to stop myself from running mothers and baby's down , because they were not looking if there were any cars coming before they crossed busy main roads !!!!

Reading this thread stirred many memories of my schooldays as a lot of the sayings and chants used to be used. I remembered whar was the last line of one chant  and it was bugging me all week but I think I have remembered it now 

I made you look, I made you stare
I made the barber cut your hair
He cut it long, he cut it short
He cut it with a knife and fork.

Jean, you must have gone to a better school than me!

Our version went:

Made you look, made you stare
Made you p*ss your underwear

Spring has sprung and the grass is riz
I wonder where the birdy is
they say the birdy's on the wing
but that's obserdy
the wing is on the birdy.

I’m so excited to finally find my Mum’s little saying, though I heard

Ah var chicka var, chicka var vooney
Vooney vooney ping pong piney
Tally Wally wester, wester wooney

She was born in Liverpool but moved with Cunard to Southampton before the Second World War and I always thought it was from a merchant seaman from abroad!!

The first mates name was Iggin, bye gad he had a biggin, once round his neck, twice round the deck and the rest he used for riggin!

I remember a horrible one that started off

yella bella custard, green snot pie   

I won't finish it off the beginning is bad enough, the rest will make you feel sick
