Subject: RE: Ying Tong Iddle I Po!
But seriously, folks, er Rick, what of the intros to the songs? I can remember only part: --
I'M WALKING BACKWARDS FOR CHRISTMAS began, if I recall:
"An immigrant lad loved an Irish colleen, from Dublin's Galway Bay
He longed for a dance, but she spurned his chance,
and he something something something.
And THE YING TONG SONG has something like ....
"An Irish song, my mother sang to me,
she sang it as she tucked me in, when I was ninety three -- "Ying, tong, ying tong....?"
I expect results!
GRYPTYPETHYNNE: "So, Scientist Seagoon, what are the results of your test?!"
SEAGOON: "England, 3; Pakistan, 1".

(those were the days)
Yours, Peter T.
