Ohms in the Range
Oh give me some ohms
To boil buffalo bones
To broil deer that once cantered, loped, played.
Make well-done that bird,
While the bernaise is stirred.
Electric stoves make chowder OK.
CHORUS
Ohms, ohms in the range
Cook the deer that once cantered, loped, played.
Make well-done that bird,
While the bernaise is stirred—
Turn that 'lectric stove up all the way.
Oh that oven light, it is burning so bright,
But if it breaks, it might tend to spark.
So don't hit it sideways when you check that ham glaze
In which cloves have made their dimple marks.
CHORUS
I'm making hare en beurre; it isn't fat-free
Balsam vinegar gives it some bite.
It's got no starch exchange; that's for food from the grange.
It's a rabbity, Atkinsy sight.
CHORUS
Gotta get out the flour, to make roux with the power
Of electrons flowing in a stream
Through wires and cables; now let's set the table.
Sit before you graze on those greens!

I'm beginning to think that you're an EE, eh?
No, Shannon, I know virtually nothing about electricity. . .I just like thematic submissions. I'm half expecting to get slammed for inaccuracies, that is, if anyone besides you reads my stuff today. I see you're an author. Who's your publisher?
John, this is excellent; and the votes so far don't reflect that---what's new? Bravo
Thanks Royce.
Just like that Irish spring gal, I liked it, too
Hey John, very nice, an improvement over the age-old "where the beer and the cantaloupe play..." And I agree, it goes well with my parody, (PLUG!) No Thyme, posted today. Amiright: It's what's for dinner! :-)
Very quirky and clever!
Sorry I missed this first time round, John...keep up the thematic work. 555
This parody is hard to resist....my initial reactance to it was to realize that there was no impedance to my enjoyment of it....my capacitance for this kind of humor is great enough to earn me inductance into the electrogeek hall of fame.
Proof That The Three Stooges Are Manifestations Of Electromagnetism: (1) The opposite of an OHM is a MHO (I kid you not); (2) One of the vectors describing electromagnetic field dynamics is the CURL(y); (3) The amount of electricity needed to defibrillate a marijuana-smoking elephant is the SHEMP; (4) Some guy named LARRY in Peoria just clicked a TV remote which uses a force of nature called ELECTRICITY.
