Nah mate they (used to maybe? idk) play that song to children in schools where I grew up. The song literally says that the butcher kills the children, chop them off and cure them in salt. I never saw it that way but it’s quite a hardcore children song. I wonder if they still do that lol.

Where are you from?
I’m going to guess France
Some Dutch person also mentioned that it is part of the story the kids get told.
I’m fairly certain only a small subset of (religious) children are told that story. It’s not a part of the ‘normal’ stories at least.
