Just some silly doggerel that I have shared with you kids before, but I want to put on record the little ditties we post-war kids used to sing...All was so recent....
I was not a swearing kid. It just is not part of my besetting sin package...And Mom and Dad - though their own mouths could do it- would not have allowed us to say foul things...But the memories I have of putting up my arm in a Nazi salute and saying, H-ll, Sh-tler, and - I WAS ALLOWED TO DO IT!!! Heady stuff for a kid and an early lesson in nuanced thinking. I knew it was sort of wrong, but it was sort of all right, as well...
Aunt Peggy's contribution to our little collection of post-war kiddy-culture probably came straight from the mouths of marching soldiers:
Hitler has only got one b-ll,
Goering has two, but rather small.
Himmler is very sim'ler
And Mr. Go-balls has no balls at all!
Clever! But - how did soldiers of that time know Hitler had only one testicle? How do men always find out these things?
Dad's little ditty, sung when tiny:
Just whistle while you work,
Hitler was a jerk.
Mussolini bit his wienie,
Now it doesn't work!
Tidbits from our era....
