PHJim Lyr Req: Eight Foot Two... (parody of 'Five Foot.. (12) RE: Lyr Req: Eight Foot Two... (parody of 'Five Foot.. 12 Apr 14

Nearly 40 years ago, Cobourg, Ontario doctor Paul Caldwell and lawyer Brad Halls released an album called "New Kids On The Block". Since Canada was adopting the metric system, they wrote these words to the song:


She's a centimetre shorter than a metre and a quarter,
And ev'ry millimetre is in perfect working order,
Has anybody seen my gal?
I know I'm only human but I still have the acumen
To know her eyes are flashing 'bout a half a million lumen,
Has anybody seen my gal?
A pair of gorgeous gams on her fifty kilograms
When she twirls her skirts.
My chest just thumps and my heart rate jumps
About a hundred kilohertz!
But Fahrengrade or Centiheit,
She's gonna light my fire tonight,
Has anybody seen my gal?
