This is a children's rhyme from the 1970's, often heard on playgrounds.
Although it has racially mocking and sexual overtones and is likely considered racist and sexist by anyone hearing it today, it wasn't always used in that context- at times it was surely as meaningless to the kids singing it as the "Ring Around the Rosie" song (Bubonic Plague- look it up).
The line was also used in Rob Zombie's movie "Devil's Rejects", very likely solely because it is considered offensive today.
To the superoctobe:
My friend's are saying that all because they hate Japanese and Chinese people. some guy made that up for races children.

∙ 12y agoSinophobia, like other forms of racism, is often passed down to younger generations as exemplified by the Spanish rhyme "Chino, Chino, Japonés, come caca, no me des" (approximately "Chinese, Chinese, Japanese, eat poop, don't give me that") and the English equivalent, "Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees, look at these" during which the children pull their eyes up and then down (to mock the shape of Asian eyes), touch their knees (to imply that Asians farm all day) and pull the fronts of their shirts out (to satirise the fact that Asian women's chests are perceived to be small).
