#4 My fren the Yorkshireman Rueful Red sez:

I have often stood on these floor before. But the trapdoor always stayed beneath my feet before. All at once am I just a bit too high And I hope that that ropes got some give.

Are there lilac trees in the heart of town? Though its less than likely Ill be in that part of town Once I take that drop, theres nothing to stop Oh I hope that that ropes got some give.

But oh, that wonderful feeling, to know that my deathly hush Will be broken by WaPo revealing That, as a martyr, Im still smarter than George Bush.

Are there funny jokes for this kind of fix? Or are Sunni folks now fated just to take their licks? Theres the camera! Hi! Ill just wave good-bye! Oh I hope that that ropes got some give!

Man Ima all over Google with Mall Fair Lady.

#6 Back off thar!
On the occasion of deh hanging....
good times, good times.
Here we go, here we go!

Theres just a few more hours, thats all the time Ive got,
A few more hours until they ties the knot.

Ima meet the hangman n the mornin,
Drugged up and feeling just like slime,
Kofi come and kiss me!
Tell em how youll miss me!
But for gawds sakes get me loose in time!

I dont want to be there n the morning,
Hell no its just not my time!
Call out the Army,
I know Im sounding smary,
But for gawds sake let me loose in time.

/Circles the Rantburg in his Triumph with IH 6.
