I'm sure you've all tried them once in your life.

Like:

A big black bug bit a big black bear,
made the big black bear bleed blood.

Try and say them out loud a few times and you're sure to fail. So, does anyone know any. I do, but they're all in dutch, I can do four of the most famous six dutch ones.

These sheep shouldn't sleep in a shack;
sheep should sleep in a shed.

I love these. The only thing that I can think of that hasn't already been said is Willow's line from Gingerbread.

I always did a different variation to that one - but i thought i was the only one who knew it!

1 1 was a race horse
1 2 was 1 2
1 1 1 1 race
1 2 1 1 2

another variation is:
she sells seashells on the sea shore
the seashells that she sells are seashells for sure

the sixth sheik's sick sheep's dead

sister suzy sewing socks for soldiers

try saying these two as fast as you can - it's v. funny when you get them mixed up!

1 smart man, he felt smart
2 smart men, they felt smart
3 smart men, they all felt smart
And they all felt smart together.

I'm not the pheasant plucker,
I'm the pheasant plucker's son.
