What were the other 'isms' FV?

Flabby arsism? Spotty bottyism?

I've long wanted to find a copy of the poster (or even just to know the words, some of which are embedded in my brain) of the 'Here Lies Poor Complacent Fred' flight safety poster....

Which began:

'Here lies poor complacent Fred
I'll be alright he always said
**************** statistic
His attitude was not realistic
When contemplating how he'd fare,
if his aeroplane ran out of air
and crashed into a tall ***** tree,
or splashed into a cold dark sea

and which also included the immortal couplet:

"which wasn't how the hapless fool
Had practised in the swimming pool."
