This old man, he played one He's choking on a chicken bone With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played two He is now three shades of blue With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played three He can barely even wheeze With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played four He's passed out upon the floor With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played five I don't think that he's alive With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played six They asked, "Revive?" and were told, "Nix!" With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played seven His stomach looks like it have leaven With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played eight He the worms did satiate With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played nine His friends are singing "Auld Lang Syne" With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave This old man, he played ten I bet he won't eat fast again With a snick-snack, sugarshack Do not misbehave Eat yourself into the grave Alicat, with apologies  As I sit here dimly thinking Watching modem lights a-blinking Churning out poetic hash. Lord, in all Your piety, Help me keep my sanity: Please don't let the modem crash! --Alicat |

Indeed no apologies needed, a message all too true with a theme song too  At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet. (Plato) ~Isis~ (Daughter of Mystery) |

ROFL - I don't see a need for apology, Alicat. This was great. Michael |
