The Lyrics

Origami dished me scant applause
Blundered crease initially - misdight!
No hobby glee to reap
Party fares to cause to weep

Japanese-y cranes won't show no flight
Oh, what disaster it has been

Someday, this parody will be on TV, undoubtedly on "paper-view".
"Misdight" - You get Fives just for expanding my vocabulary, and there aren't Barry many writers who can claim that :)

Thanks everybody :) Tommy, you're telling me ! I thought it was one of Merry's legendary (to me, anyway) mis-spellings ! I looked it up and thought "Stuff me, that's a real bloody word". Heh heh.
