Ode to the Fly

Now, ain't that just something?? I learned that song, but not with those lyrics, didn't even know these lyrics existed. Hmmm, How did you know??

When I was young, we sang something, but the only thing that stuck in my mind is the chorus, and the notes. I could give you my history, behind this tune, and why it came to mind, but frankly, Geezer, it isn't any of your business, and if you don't like my offering, the way I intended, then please don't read the offering, and you won't be offended (as soon as it was obvious it would offend you, that is).

Should the Editor wish me to remove this ""offensive"" offering, Editor will, or I will.

Now that I've seen the original words, from this point on (presuming I remember), I will never again put lyrics to that melody, just so you can rest well, if nothing else.

Anything else?? ... Hmmm, I think you made me angry ... I'm much better now. (^8

i dont think this geezer is the same one who used to respond with courteous dissent

guess i'll have to read more of Arley's poetry; ashamed to admit that i have mostly just read the titles and they seemed benign. but geezer, i have read most of (maybe all?) of your dissent and you have more than generally been very courteous. and i feel that you present your opinion in thoughtful, reasoned responses.
