(in Russian)

For the translation I used the Humpty-Dumpty pattern. It's not in the original. The rhyme was well received, but reall roars of laughter were after the 'political' version of the same rhyme. In Soviet times they circulated parallel to each other. Here is how it goes.
High on the chimney were A and B
A fell down.
B taken out.
AND was the one from KGB.
(in Russian)
А и Б сидели на трубе.
А упало,
Б пропало.
И работал в КГБ.
А упало,
Б пропало.
И работал в КГБ.
