Stupid Stuff You Remember from Childhood

[CityGirl]

Do you ever have stupid stuff from your childhood flit across your mind for no reason or prompted by something completely unrelated?

Just now, I saw a FB post from a friend showing a picture of a Big Wheel which made me think of my younger brother which made me think of this
crazy poem I recall him saying:


Early in the morning
Late at night
Two dead boys
Got up to fight
Back to back they faced each other
Drew their swords and shot each other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise
And shot and killed the two dead boys

A paralysed donkey came strolling by
And kicked the policeman in his left right eye
And if you dont believe this lie is true
Ask the blind man he saw it too


Amazing how we can remember such stupid stuff and yet I can walk from my bedroom to the kitchen with an intent and purpose and by the time I get there, I can't remember what I was going to do....!

I used to say

One fine day, in the middle of the night,
Two dead men got up to fight.
Back to back they faced each other,
Drew their swords and shot each other.

I don't recall the last part you have in yours.

I remember quite a lot from when I was wee...

Playing in the sand and water trays at nursery when I was about 3.
Having a bad cough and being put in the bathroom with the shower on to get the steam to help clear my chest, aged 2.5-3.
Walking my Gran round the hospice grounds with my mum and brother when I was around 2-3.
Walking to Nursery and trying to jump a puddle but landing in the middle of it and getting soaked. Had to go home and change.

Probably more but can't think of them just now.

I randomly remember the words to a silly poem we used to sing in Girl Scouts. It was about a storm that came through and ripped up all the billboards. Random portions I remember are:

Smoke Coca-cola cigarettes
Chew Wrigley spearmint beer
Kennel Ration dog food makes your wife's complexion clear
Doctors say that babies should smoke until they're 3
People over 65 should bathe in Lipton tea

You talking about a rhyme made me completely remember Miss Susie--I just said the entire thing and I haven't said it in YEARS.

Miss Susie had a steamboat
The steamboat had a bell (ding ding)
Miss Susie went to heaven
The steamboat went to
Hello operator
Please give me number nine
And if you disconnect me
I'll kick you from
Behind the fridgerator
There was a piece of glass
Miss Susie fell upon it
And broke her big fat
Ask me no more questions
Tell me no more lies
The boys are in the bathroom
Zipping up their
Flies are in the meadow
Bees are in the park
Miss Susie's in the bathroom
Kissing in the d-a-r-k
D-a-r-k
Dark is like a movie
A movie's like a show
A show is like a T.V set
And that is all I know


And it goes on even more, LOL.

I don't recall that one but do you remember Going on a bear hunt?

These are the only 2 I recognize here...I forgot all about the cooties until you posted this, hahaha.

This is the one that comes to mind for me:

Say, say, oh playmate,
Come out and play with me
And bring your dollies three
Climb up my apple tree

Shout down my rain barrel
Slide down my cellar door
And we'll be jolly friends
Forever more more more more more

Say, say, oh playmate
I cannot play with you
My dolly's got the flu
Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo

Ain't got no rain barrel
Ain't got no cellar door
But we'll be jolly friends
Forever more more more more more

I remember swimming for hours upon hours in an ice cold kiddie pool, free, happy, and full of ideas. Nothing in this world has been better since.

I remember this playground apparatus we called "Space Cheese". It was orange pumice stone with swiss cheese holes that looked like a moon rock. That thing scraped your ass up good.

Hm, I don't remember many jingles aside from what's here, I remember the Miss Susie and the Mary Mack one?

Miss Mary Mack Mack Mack
All dressed in black black black
with silver buttons buttons buttons
all down her back back back

that's all I remember of it lol

Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie
Kissed the girls and made them cry
But when the boys came out to play
George Porgie ran away

My mom used to wake me up in the morning singing "You are my sunshine" too. I loved that.

Oh shit...you're bringing back memories from my childhood, lol.

Mom would always holler out "rise and shine", but I'd sing "you are my sunshine" to my niece.

Georgie porgie..haha...we tormented anyone named Peter with "Peter, Peter, pumpkin eater...."

What about "growing a rose garden" on someone's arm?

PEN15 Club



The HOUSE game, where you'd right like 5 guys you thought were cute, and your friend would add a yucky guy... 5 careers you liked, + 1 yucky one.... 5 nice cars, +1 yucky.... etc etc. And you'd pick a random number and count through each one, crossing off one by one till you were left with one in each category, and those were "your" picks (who you would marry, where you'd live, what you'd drive, etc etc)

Hahaha.... oh man...
