A more popular song when I was that age was Ye Canny Shove yer Granny aff a bus, which went something like this

Oh ye canny shove yer granny aff a bus.
Oh ye canny shove yer granny aff a bus.
Ye canny shove yer granny,
For she's yer mammy's mammy.
Oh ye canny shove yer granny aff a bus.

Ye can shove yer ither granny aff a bus.
Ye can shove yer ither granny aff a bus.
Ye can shove yer ither granny,
Cos she's yer daddy's mammy.
Ye can shove yer ither granny aff a bus.

Stop the bus I need a wee wee
Stop the bus I need a wee wee
Stop the bus I need a wee wee
A wee wee cup of tea,
CUP OF TEA

I Am Iron Man

What a great campfire song that was.

How about this one:

Oh you'll never go to heaven,
On a sheet of glass,
Because a sheet of glass,
Will cut your...

It's the only verse of many I can remember from years of cub camps, but that was a while back now, in the heady days of the eighties...


Trams are good too!

don't forget about trams which are good for pushing Grannies off too.
and trains
and cars
and ferries
and planes
and boats

In fact poor old Grannies can be pushed off pretty much everything really


Another perspective

How about pushing other things off things when the grannies are underneath e.g rocks, metal objects etc.

Sheepish Lord of Chaos

I seem to remember a scout camp about 4000 years ago where we ended up singing how you'd never get to heaven in a baked bean tin 'cos a baked bean tin's got baked beans in.

I'm surprised this song never won an Ivor Novello award.

I remember that song!!

didn't the second verse got something like

you'll never get to heaven in a mousetrap
you'll never get to heaven in a mousetrap
you'll never get to heaven in a mousetrap
'cos a mousetrap has contributed to the deaths of countless poor undomesticated animals known as "mice" and therefore will go to hell
you'll never get to heaven in a mousetrap...

no??

hmmmm......pity

Oh you'll never go to heaven

In a Girl Guide's Bra
(In a Girl Guide's Bra)
Coz a Girl Guide's Bra
(Coz a Girl Guide's Bra)
Won't stretch that far
