What are some children's grossout songs that are not in English?

Growing up in the US, the "great green globs of greasy grimy gopher guts...." song was one of my favorites. I'm particularly interested in German ones, but definitely open to anything else.

"Alouette" (French) is about plucking out a bird's feathers, body part by body part:

Alouette, gentille alouette
Alouette, je te plumerai
Je te plumerai la tête
Je te plumerai la tête
Et la tête, et la tête
Alouette, Alouette
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Alouette, gentille alouette
Alouette, je te plumerai
Je te plumerai le bec
Je te plumerai le bec
Et le bec, et le bec
Et la tête, et la tête
Alouette, Alouette
Oh, oh, oh, oh

...and so on.
