In addition to the Russian X-rated alphabet rhymes that one can find on 
the internet (see my earlier posting to the thread about lexicographers 
and literature), there are at least three Polish websites with variants 
of such a text. The texts can be found at <simon1s.webpark.pl> 
(incomplete, but probably the oldest version); 
<chwasty.tripod.com/anonimy-15.html> (probably also pre-WWII); and 
<audi80.pl/printview.php?t=50&start=465> (some of it at least post-WWII, 
given its reference to Berlin "lying in ruins," and some of it even more 
recent because of the use of the term "joystick," which was popularized 
in English through its use in video games, probably from the 1980s, 
although its earliest entry in the Oxford English Dictionary - in its 
aeronautic usage - is from 1910).
