Jingle bells, Batman smells, Robin............????

allymc, 6 December, 2008 at 18:53 Posted on Off Topic Posts 1 44

I was singing this version to our 7 month old yesterday and as far as I'm concerned Robin flew away. H looked at me as if I was demented and said it's 'Robin laid an egg!' I'd never heard of Robin laying an egg. So, in your version, what does Robin do?

    Robin flew away, lost his pants in the middle of France and found them in Bombay.......

    Or should that be Mumbai now? But that doesn't fit as well.

    The egg thing is off the Simpsons!

    Flew away.

    And the batmobile lost its wheels on the motorway.

    Have heard the laid an egg one though - think they were talking about it on Chris Moyles the other day but I don't think they ever worked out what the last line was.

    Blimey! I didn't realise there were so many versions ?! And the one I know doesn't mention the Batmobile at all, it ends 'Kojak lost his lolipop and found it straight away'

    Did anyone else sing Popeye the Sailor Man songs? The favourite versions in our (Scottish) school were:

    Popeye the Sailor Man (toot toot)
    He lives in a caravan
    He opens the door
    and fell through the floor
    It's Popeye the Sailor Man

    and

    Popeye the Sailor Man (toot toot)
    He lives in a caravan
    He stood in the lobby
    and did a big jobby
    It's Popeye the Sailor Man

    ?

    Flew away and the batmobile on the M1 version here too

    grew up with Popeye's caravan having

    A hole in the middle

    where he does a piddle

    Shamefully we also had a Jesus Christ Superstar one

    Jesus Christ Superstar

    Came down to earth on a Yamaha

    Did a skid

    Hit a kid

    and bashed his bollocks on a dustbin lid

    Robin flew away, Armstrong lost his lollipop and found the milyway.

    I have heard laid an egg but I can't remember what we said for that one.

    I also sang that Popeye lived in a caravan but I can't rememeber the rest.
