(What do you do when you get a melody stuck in your head, but have brain freeze and can't remember all the words? Do you make up your own lyrics? I can't believe I forgot the words to Kodachrome!) Phonohomes When I think back on all the wrap I burned in hi school It's a wonder I can rap at all And though my pack of education hasn't burnt me none I can reed the righting on the wall Homophones They give us those spiced write colors They give the sticky gummers Makes you wink all the world’s a sonny day, owe yeah I got a word a’rambler I love to take a phonahome So mama don’t steak my homophone a weigh. If you booked all the words I new when I was single And taught them all twogether for won knight I no they’d ever catch my treat imagination Everything looks cursive in black and white. Mama don’t take my homophones away Mama don’t take my phonohome away Mama don’t take my homophones away Mama don't take my homophones Mama don't take my homophones Mama don't take my phonohomes Mama don't take my homophones Leave your joy sew far from Roam Mama don't take my homophones away Mama don't take my homophones Uhm uhm! Mama don't take my homophones away Oh, Kay! [This message has been edited by miscellanea (12-16-2005 07:23 AM).] |

Ah, the enjoyable entanglement that is the enviable ennui of the English language. Or something. Lovely confusing little song, this is. "The moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell". -- Tom Waits, 'Bad Liver and a Broken Heart' |

I don't know whether to use my hands for applauding you... or put them to use spanking you for sticking this song in my head! LOL Great write... and thanks for the grins! *G* |

suthern, Too funny! May I suggest..."Not the spanking! Not the spanking!" The applause will do just fine! BTW, where have you been lately? I haven't been around as much lately, but I haven't seen your poetry when I have. Miss you, suthern! I'm sending lots of wishes for a great 2006. Take care, miscellanea |
