Parody Written by:

The Lyrics
As remote cousins of Giorgio Coniglio (grandson)*, we noticed that a lot of attention has been paid recently to anagrams; our crazy relative has gotten fixated on rearranging the letters of the word "PALINDROMES". Knowing that we could do it better, we spent a few minutes concocting some new verses of his song. We must admit that we included quite a few of the locations for which he thought the names sounded too racy or nasty. So enjoy our ALL-NEW VERSION, and vote for it in Palmes D'Or contests.

We've got anagrams, Sam

Told our Ma, “Gas! Ran!”, Sam

not bad although if you don't mind my asking where's the opening intro bit? 4's
@Jonathan: Thanks. With the vast collection of spoofs on this OS, readers have likely "been there" already. And, we were concentrating on outrunning Coniglio on the anagram selection, and believe we succeeded. To get your question fully answered, click on our 'email link' at the bottom, after observing it's wordplay-quirks.
Hey Lapins; My Grandson wanted to pass on this list of towns you left out of your "revised" version: Maid's Rope NL. Isomer Pal ND; Dipole Arms NS; Oprieland MS; Endoplasm RI; Seal Prion and Spiro Lane MD; Sled Apron and Pas-le-Nord MI; Las' Period and Operalids NM; Misled Rap and Pedal's Rim ON; Midpanels and Damn Spiel OR. Watch your backs!
These days, it's important to keep US productivity unsullied by foreign e.g. Canadian influence. So we've now divided the locales of note by strict criterion into US and Canadian versions, leaving those with unspecified postal codes to the US. (No point in repeating the War of 1812.) You can ceheck this out in 2 separate postings on "Giorgio's Ukable Parodies" - there are now some 200 anagrams of "PALINDROMES" available.
