Sounds like the average Dutch children's rhyme to me, hee hee!

How about this little song, for instance:

Toer lantoer lantantje,
de boer, die liet een skeet.
Deed'em in een mandje
en bracht'em naar zijn peet.

Dag peet, dag peet,
morgen breng ik weer een skeet.
Zet hem op de tafel,
dan lijkt het wel een wafel,
zet hem op de grond,
dan is het een hoopie - poep.

Claiming no responsibility,
Gabriele Kahn
