Thread Name: Lyr Req: Little Man, You've Had a Busy Day
Subject: RE:
I've heard tell there was a computer hack in Bagdad who posted the tune to "Mary Had A Little Lamb" (MIDI) and a certain holy man---actually a dervish of sorts---played it over and over and over and over as he spun wildly down the streets of that city. A real little lamb (a small goat) followed him for miles. The whirling dervish fell to the pavement, where the lamb ate him! (Must've been hungry.) Sadam Hussein was passing by at that very moment and he sang out to the lamb, "MIDI lamb, you've had a dizzy bey!"
