Subject: RE: What 'serious' song do you giggle through?
Little Hawk nominated "The US National Anthem."

I nominate CANADA's national anthem the way it was when I lived north of the border (early 1970s):

O Canada, our home and native land,
True patriot love in all our hearts command.
With glowing hearts we see the rise, the true North strong and free,
And WE STAND ON GUARD, O Canada,
WE STAND ON GUARD for thee.
O Canada, glorious and free,
WE STAND ON GUARD,
WE STAND ON GUARD for thee.
O Canada, WE STAND ON GUARD for thee.

Guess which parts I had to struggle to sing without snickering. ;)
