Thread Name: Silly short songs
Subject: Silly short songs
Can anyone add to the following list of non-songs:
(A la Nat King Cole) "Unforgettable, that's... um...."
"You made me love you,
You woke me up to do it, you woke me up to do it"
"I'm just a girl who cain't say n.. n.. n..."
Or in the folk idiom:
"The gallant frigate Amphirite, she sank in Plymouth sound"
"The rain is softly falling, and the Oggy Man's still there"
"As I was a walking down Paradise Street, ... nothing happened"
"My name it is Van Gogh, lend an ear, lend an ear..."
From the 60s:
"My trousers they are baggy, I know they are, I know they are
I had them made so they would catch the wind."
There must be hundreds of others. Please send them in.
