NOTES [55 words]: Almost every version of this I found online was in an educational context (typically as part of a worksheet children could use to analyze the song), so I presume it comes out of schools, but I don't have absolute proof. All the versions seem to be quite new; I'm surprised that Derek Piotr's informant learned it from her mother. - RBW
