Subject: RE: song challenge: finish Bernadette parody
Not sure I've got the scansion (presumably Wizard of Oz):
We're off to see the Virgin, The wonderful Virgin of Lourdes. They say Bernadette didn’t want to get wet While crossing some shallow fords. So stooping to take off some of her clothes She heard a wild wind, and saw a white rose A dazzling light, and a figure in white. We'll join the hordes And hordes and hordes And hoooooordes ... To see the miraculous Virgin of Lourdes.
