“Ma ma ma ma ma la bamba
Spaghetti, meatballs,
And a great big banana…”
Spaghetti, of course, refers to pubic hair; meatballs to testicles and ‘great big banana’ to an implausibly long and curvy penis. Generally accompanied by a bizarre dance, in which said genital features were outlined with the hands.

At our school the song was the same, except the gigantic banana was ‘all chopped up in pieces’, and the ‘spaghetti meatballs’ were generally considered to be breasts. The wild size/texture/immersion in sauce disparity between meatballs and bosoms wasn’t the point.
We were singing about chopped-up winkles and little brown boobs, and that’s all that matters.
