Dave Morrah, who wrote humorous articles and cartoons in The Saturday Evening Post was perhaps best known for his mock German style of writing, using mostly English, but making it sound German. Here are several nursery rhymes he rewrote in that style in various books in the 1950's, such as Tales Mein Grossfader Told
Fraulein Bo-Peepen ben losen der sheepen
Und puzzlen mit der gelooken.
Later der sheepen ben homen gecreepen
Mit tailers behinder geshooken
Jack der Spratt ben liken lean
Der frau ben liken fat
Und mit der up-gerisen cost
Der bankenroll ben flat!
Loved reading these, but alas, it is now considered politically incorrect.
Dave
