A childhood nursery rythme thats abit grim..

[potter666]

I can remember a song we learnt in nursery school about a baby that swallowed the soap and died. One of the lines was "He's dead said the doctor, He's dead said the nurse, He's dead said the lady with the aligator purse". Can anyone remember this song and tell me who the lady with the alligator purse appertains to please?

Its one of those songs that you clap to, like tony macaroni. Except it wasnt dead when we sang it, measles said the doctor, chicken pox said the nurse ( Id have to phone my mum to ask her the rest)

Thanks soulette, I think it must be a regional thing (me originaly from thr North East) as we did'nt clap, more exclaimed with glee upon the diagnosis!

Oh and who's Tony Macoroni as we did'nt learn that one just about a little monkey that ran through the country...hehehe still makes me laugh that one lol!

My boyfriends name is toni.
He lives in Macoroni.
He jumped in lake
and swallowed a snake
and ended u[p with belly, belly ache.
