POLITICALLY CORRECT NURSERY RHYMES

At no time throughout my life have I thought for a moment that nursery rhymes needed to be revised and I really wonder what type of people dwell on such things. Well, whoever they are, they are the reason for this story and here's an example of their stupid obsession fine work.
THE OLD WOMAN WHO LIVED IN A SHOE

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. She had so many children, she didn't know what to do.

She gave them some broth, Without any bread, Whipped them all soundly, and sent them to bed.

(EXTRA VERSE)
There was a young man from the social work team.

He asked all the children what they had seen. He quizzed the old woman, Then took her away, And found all the children new places to stay.
It's nice to know that, after a couple hundred years of nursery rhyming, mankind has mutated matured sufficiently to have jello-brained do-gooders intellectuals screw up a good thing provide needed revision.

Hat tip to Tongue Tied.
