<DIV> </DIV><TT><FONT face="Times New Roman"></FONT><BR>I don't know if any
of you read the comics pages on Saturdays/Sundays, but <BR>there is a comicstrip
called One Big Happy. In this last Saturday's <BR>installment, the young girl,
Ruthie, is singing her versions of a couple of <BR>Christmas
songs...<BR><BR>Wicker Wonderland (tune of Winter Wonderland)<BR>Sprayed bells
ring; can't ya listen?<BR>In the lane, snow is missin'.<BR>A beautiful sign,
they're formin' a line,<BR>Workin' down at wicker wonderland.<BR><BR>Gone away
is the doofus,<BR>Hot to stay is the new fuss.<BR>Who sings a dumb song,<BR>Hey,
loser, so long.<BR>Workin' down at wicker wonderland.<BR><BR>In the meantime, we
will build a snowman,<BR>And pretend that he's from lost'n'found,<BR>We'll say,
"What's your sign?", and he'll say, "slow, man,"<BR>And you can spill the gravy
on the ground.<BR><BR><BR>Christmas song<BR><BR>Chestnuts roasting on Miss
McEntire,<BR>Eggnog rolling down your nose,<BR>You'll find Carol being stung by
a fryer,<BR>And folks paint daisies on their toes.<BR><BR>Everybody knows, that
turkey<BR>known as Uncle Joe,<BR>Lord help them that's got no teeth,<BR>Tater
tots, with their icicles so,<BR>Will find it hard to by a wreath.<BR><BR>They
know that Santa's on his way,<BR>He's loaded lots of baby budgies<BR>on his
sleigh......<BR><BR>They don't finish that song, unfortunately. I think it would
be interesting <BR>to listen to how a child would perceive those songs, and what
words they <BR>would come up with in place of the actual words....<BR><BR>I just
thought you might enjoy those "fractured songs"<BR><BR>G'Vera</TT>
