GUEST,Charmion's brother Andrew Lyr Req: Kid's Parodies (60* d) RE: Lyr Req: Kid's Parodies 08 Dec 05


The Anglican Hymnal has provided much grist to the children's parody mill, such as:

On Jordan's bank the Baptists cry
Because the ferry has gone by,
But they shall have to stand and wait
Until it comes again at eight.

And

No ale, no beer, no rum and no stout!
What shall we do when the whisky runs out?

The latter sounds particularly silly when sung by trebles with the descant. I wish I could remember more of them.
