Thread Name: Lyr Req: We Three Kings of Orient Are
Subject: RE: We Three Kings of Orient Are
Instead of "God rest ye merry gentlemen," I remember going straight fom "it exploded" to "We TWO Kings of Orient are..." and then cracking up laughing.

Couldn't go much further anyway -- "We One King" wouldn't make any sense at all, changing "are" to "am" would screw up the rhyme sceme, etc.

(I was writing a post similar to this yesterday when I lost connection to Mudcat.)
