On today's Weakest Link "Who was the author of the poem that begins 'They muck you up, your mum and dad'?" I don't think they'd have taken my answer of "there's no such poem". As a sidenote I did a check on this bowdlerised version and discovered several websites repeating it, some without mentioning the fact that it had been changed. "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | ||

This page mentions an even more bowdlerised version: They tuck you up ... which also destroys the meaning. Build a man a fire and he's warm for a day. Set a man on fire and he's warm for the rest of his life. | |||
