I like canals and canal boats!

I think I'll learn some canalist and canaling songs!

Drat! There don't appear to be any!

OK, I'll write some canalist and canaling songs.

........................ some time later ......................

Hmm! It's quite difficult this song writing, isn't it?

I know! I'll dig out some musty old poems about canalists and canaling and put tunes to them! No-one will ever know (perhaps they'll even think they're traditional).
