Subject: RE: Lyr Req: On the Road to Mandalay (Kipling)
Billie Bennett parody of Mandalay:
http://www.epicure.demon.co.uk/mandalay.html

The chorus-
On the road to Mandalay
Where you see the fried fishes play.
They bring their own chips with them
When it's early-closing day.

I can't bring myself to post this parody. One verse:

There's a farm on the horizon Looking eastward to Siam
We could have some ham and eggs there, if they had some eggs and ham
They've only got one hen, they call her "Mandy" by the way
They found out she's a cock- That's why they can't make Mandy lay.
