Mary had a little lamp,
Its shade was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went,
that lamp was sure to glow.

Re: Peter had a little goat
Mary had a Crapophone
Its provenance quite funky
Thus every record Mary played
Sounded rather junky.

Re: Peter had a little goat
Mary had a big moustache
quite enormous, flamboyant,
And whatever place Mary went,
the big moustache ta-ta-tant!

Mary had a little lamb,
its fleas were white as snow,
and everywhere that Mary went,
the fleas were sure to go.
Mary was not a welcomed house guest.

Mary had a little lamb.
Her father shot it dead.
Now she takes the lamb to school,
Between two slabs of bread.

Re: Peter had a little goat
I remember that when I was in elementary school, maybe in grade one or two, I overheard a "Mary" rhyme from a group of older boys, probably grade seven students.
They seemed to find it uproariously funny.
I, however, did not understand it, but as children often do, I repeated it, repeated it for my parents when I went home for lunch.
They found it doubly funny, because I obviously did not understand it.
This is not the place to repeat it, well ... at least not in full.
Mary had a little lamb.
Its name was Ebeneezer,
And every time she climbed the fence
He saw .........
