Hiya all
I know this is a kind of nursery rhyme.
But I can't make any sense of this "word"in English.
Please tell me whatever you know about this song/word.

I know nothing

but for posting

"Skinny Malinky longlegs
Big banana feet
Went to the pictures and couldn't find a seat"

Is that the one?

It's a bit of a nonsense poem really, I wouldn't try to find any deep meaning in it!

where you been, thought you'd got lost in one of Japan's big snow falls

Lucky Star,
I left this matter @ Micellancious Thread, too. and got the same replies with you
It's good for me to get lot of infomation and learn more through you

Prof
lol I'm hiding in my bed because it's been tooooo cold
But I'm okay
I'll pop on here time to time when I'm wide awake

I'm glad your ok, I have missed you on hootoo, I did not email, because I thought it better to wait a while

for your deep consideration.
Actually I KEEP SMILYING, prof not groveling
I'll mail you soon
I'll leave home soon to teach s English
AAARRRGGGGHHHHH... I can't believe/imagine that I'm taeching English I'm sure I'm not a good teacher

you will have to tell me all about it.

Prof
I'm ing
s were okay. and I may be able to teach them English in right way
We made heart shaped bag as "craft"
I asked them to write down a phrase I "someone" and one told me that he wanted to write "mum" but he didn't know the word, so I write it on the white board "mum" Afterwords, my friend who speaks American English told me "Taeko the spelling is wrong it's 'mOm' not 'mUm'" ...Gosh... I checked it in dictionary and I told her that was English not American English... But originally they(Japanese) prefer learn Amreican English to English aarrrgggghghhhh I get really confused
Also we had some observers this Wednesday. They had tester course, then observed one of my class.... REALLY TIRED.
And I haven't spoken English to English.... aaarrrggggghhhhh
I'm really worried that my English speaking/listeing abilities is going down (will be gone) sooner or later
I have to study English/(French, too) harder
That's what happened this week

"I'll leave home soon to teach English " ?? where will you go to.
You will do well in teaching English,I know that

My friend organise small "school/playing circle" at her place. So I will go there to teach English
otherwise there is no place/space to have English classes for noisy naughty s
It's little bit far from my flat. but it's close to Arnoldtoymaker's house

I'm not sure, but I'll do my best untill I will find cool job in England
Looking forward to hearing from you soon, too

Hey lady you can do better than that ,come on get my name correct ok

I always get confused you name
I'll be careful to write your name for now
See you soon

did you mean a limmerick? (I don't know if I've spelt it correctly). It is a funny sort of rhyme i.e.

There was a young man who said why?
Can't I look in my ear with my eye?
If I put my mind to it,
I'm sure I can do it,
You never can tell 'till you try!

They are usually silly and appeal to my sense of humour.

AAAWWWWWWWWWW MEG!!!!!
for your post
Actually I don't know this song's origin, so that I posted this journal.
And I've got very interesting infomation from you.
Especially you as most of you mentioned only about Scotish or Ireish ones.
So, I can have a note yours
I've got this song from one American children CD called Wee Sings that includes lots of nursery rhymes (Mather Goose, in American English), so lot of rhymes are different from ones that I know.
And I guessed that this song is of American, but it seems that it isn't (I mean original)
Such a Great Fun to know those kind of interesting stuff
I really thank you for all of your post
