For UK people do you hear this rhyme around you on bonfire nights?

"A penny loaf to feed the Pope


A farthing o' cheese to choke him.


A pint of beer to rinse it down.


A ****** of sticks to burn him.


Burn him in a tub of tar.


Burn him like a blazing star.


Burn his body from his head.


Then we'll say ol' Pope is dead.


Hip hip hoorah!


Hip hip hoorah hoorah! "





Is it banned or something? I learnt it last year amd some of my mates are catholic and they enjoy it more than anybody else! Pretty funny
