Of course they scan, if they didn't how would I have sung them to fit? The lyrics you wrote wouldn't fit the phrasing even nearly.

"The lyrics you wrote wouldn't fit the phrasing even nearly."

You are killing me here. How about this -- The lyrics you wrote wouldn't nearly fit the phrasing.

Yanks? Are you a Brit, puppets? An Aussie?

Okay, I'll stop jerking your chain. When I was at the Inauguration, I spent three hours arguing in the street with the protestors. It is just sometimes a fun thing to do.

As I said earlier, I wrote the lyrics to fit a MIDI so the FReepers could play the music and sing the song. It is more fun to have the music than to say --- "sung to the tune of....."

Your criticism appeared to me to be condescending and arrogant rather than constructive. Yes, you are free to be nasty here. I thought I would just stick it back to you, and you made it fairly easy. When criticizing someone on this forum, it is helpful to be grammatical and cogent. If you are not, you open yourself up for a counterpunch. I will defer to your superior musical skills, but you really do need to work on language skills. The use of the written word is important on a forum that contains what we write.

My first parody CD is expected to be out in February. I will welcome constructive criticism without a cheap shot. I'm proud of the songs and hope people will enjoy them.

This is repetitive, but it has been played and enjoyed around the world --- THE BALLAD OF MIKE MORAN - click on "music" and download the song A few years ago, I went to New York and joined our friend Mike Moran for some serious beer drinking. If you don't know the story, he lost his brother on 9-11 -- a FReeper and Battalion Commander John Moran. We miss him greatly.
