I’m thinking I was probably about 8 years old, so 1969.

Jingle bells, Batman smells
Robin laid an egg,
The Batmobile lost a wheel
and the Joker got away.

I first learned this in ~1971-2.

I was in Catholic grade school in the mid 70’s. I can remember because Sister Paula did NOT find the song amusing and scolded the entire sixth grade. We then sung it very quietly during outside recess. Just a thought.

1967 would explain why I never heard of this....smack in the middle of my USMC enlistment - pretty much a news void period.

Lol, Dude....fun memories. My Dad, three brothers and I would watch Batman together every week. Afterward we'd play "No-Peeky Poker". It was the late 60's, and I of course learned the song from my ever so worldly big brother.

He was a treasure trove of playground hits including the "Comet" song and the ever popular "Glory Glory Hallelujia...Teacher Hit Me With s Ruler"

I first heard it just before Christmas 1966 in the school yard of Washington School in West Haven, Connecticut.

Answering this would require that I be able to look into the future.

Simpsons 1989

Thought it was the most brilliant thing my 11-year-old ears had ever heard.

I was born in '47 and remember it, but I couldn't tell you what year exactly. I believe it was when I was a kid in the 50's or a teen in the 60's.

Does anyone remember this jingle that I definitely recall from my childhood years:

"Whistle while you work, Hitler is a jerk. Mussolini cut his weenie, now it doesn't work."

Not being a Simpsons fan, my generation's version was,

Jingle Bells, Shotgun Shells,
Shooting all away;
Oh what fun, it is to ride,
In Grandma's Chevrolet, hey.


Or something like that...

Then there is Cris Mattnew's verson...

Tingle Legs
