I came across a WW2 version of 'Oranges and Lemons' which I thought kind of a laugh. Unfortunately I have no idea if it's real or if it's been written more recently, but it's still funny.
Spitfires and Blenheims
Said the bells of St Clements
Aren’t built for five farthings
Said the bells of St Martins
Donations I pray ye
Said the bells of Old Bailey
On account o' the blitz
Said the bells of Shoreditch
Downhearted? Not we
Said the bells of Stepney
Lord love yer no, no,
Boomed the big bell of Bow.
