Thread Name: Lyr Add: Topical Whitewash song
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Topical Whitewash song
A whitewash medley.

Could also incorporate THE AMATEUR WHITEWASHER:

Slap-dab, slap-dab, up and down the brickwork, slap-dab all day long,
In and out the corners, round the Johnny Horners, we were a pair of fair clean goners,
Slap-dab, slap with the whitewash brush - Talk about a fancy ball,
But I put more whitewash on the old woman than I did upon the garden wall.


I like it when current events give an old song a new meaning - like Clinton did with:

The End of me Old Cigar,
Ta-ra-ta-ra-ta-rar,
I walk down Picadilly, I'm a regular lah-did-dah,
I may not be good looking,
But they reckon that I'm a star,
for I tickle the Ladies' Fancy
With the End of me Old Cigar
