Kind of following on from 'Mangles..' & 'Spelcheck...'

Here's a variant of a trad. song after its undergoing the Thesaurus treatment:

Smack 'blunder to invest, me crafty child!
Curl 'make a mistake absent, stay turn-off!
The backside swing men are giggling' pork,
We'll be reverse in the crack of dawn'.

My feather used to call the torn
When the Lang shift was owner.
As he went out bye, he쳌fd hear him cry;
Dye knee it's after fewer?

And when that awful day arrived,
The last shift for me feather;
A fail of stones and broken bones,
But still above the clatter, he cried:


Rap 'err tee bank, me canny lad!
Wind 'err ret slowly, that's clever!
This poor aid lad has taken bad;
I쳌fll be back hero never.

ps

You can only get Thesaurus if you use 'Word'- click on Tools, then 'Language', then 'Thesaurus'.

CYCLIST HILL

If I had another denomination
I would have another gill
I would have the piper fool around
The good-looking young woman of Messenger Hill

Messenger Mound and Hiker Coast
Collier schoolboys for ever more
Messenger Mound and Hiker Coast
Collier schoolboys for ever more

Too bad the Word Thesaurus only returns synonyms. If it gave you an antonym list you could really mangle things.

Bullies are effortlessly compelled and massacred
Under no circumstances eloquent to the raison d'être
Save for whoever assets looseness reminiscent of the gobble up,
Are required to become skilled at how to flutter
Donkey work, donkey work, donkey work, donkey work…

I traverse a not getting any younger dye, I'm foremost to not getting any younger Dan
I'm disappearing to Montana to cast a hoolihan
They nosh in the coulees, they irrigate in the sketch
Their extremities are all dishevelled, and their flipsides are all uncooked.

Be conveyed give or take a few diminutive beleaguers….
