Thread Name: Lyr Req: Blaze Away / Mealy Pudding
Subject: Lyr Add: BLAZE AWAY
Well, the version I heard was in the Boy Scouts, and is probably a parody of something else. Probably someone will also say, obviously inauthentic, because there are no f-words. Well, here goes:

BLAZE AWAY

We'll build a bonfire of our troubles, and we'll watch the blaze away,
And as they all go-WUP in smoke clouds, we'll never worry should they come another day!
And as the bonfire keeps on burning, happy days will be returning,
As the scouts are singing, we'll watch our troubles blaze away-ay-ay.

HEY!
When all of a sudden, a big mealy puddin' came flying throug the air,
When all of a sudden, a big mealy puddin' came flying throug the air,
When all of a sudden, a big mealy puddin' came flying throug the air,
It hit me here,
It hit me there,
It hit me everywhere.
[Etc.]
