In Australia, this ditty has always been:

"Jingle bells,
Batman smells,
Robin flew away,
The Batmobile lost one wheel,
All on Christmas Day."

We sang it often in 1967.

Never heard the US "laid an egg" and "Joker got away..." version until it featured on a "Batman: The Animated Series" episode in the early 90s.

Funny stuff! Regional differences.
Here's Robert Goulet on the on the Simpsons singing it. He's from Canada, so it's probably the same there?

Truthfully, I think your version is more "genuine". :D That said, I didn't know if you knew you could buy a nice print of it...

Hi gang,
Hallmark.com has ornaments at 50% off. Also, if you sign up to their web site, you get another $5 off. It is free ship to store to boot. So you can pick up The Batcycle for just about $10.
Some days you just can't get rid of a ... SHARK!
