   It's inky pinky. Only the Yanks say hinky dinky, and we all know they don't   
   know what they're on about. It was British soldiers taking a popular   
   traditional French song (Madamoiselle of From Armentieres) and giving it their   
   usual makeover. 'There was an    
   old lady at 92 parlez vous. There was an old lady at 92 parlez vous. There was   
   an old lady at 92, done a fart and out it blew, inky pinky parlez vous.'
