Eat Ba...

Just because you did it doesn't mean the rest of us weren't thinking it. You just got to the keyboard first.

I do hope your all recording your parts so I can edit them and add in the music

You really don't want me to record anything. I can make autotune crash. Think of Jeremy Hardy!

Brilliant - an AViators project!

what sort of file would you like, legsy?

"Think of Jeremy Hardy!"

Jeremy Hardy has an excellent voice... as long as he's doing an impression of Morrissey. To the point that Tim Brooke-Taylor, when he'd finished singing "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now" in Pick Up Song, said "Who are you, and what have you done with Jeremy Hardy?".

That was really good Ben - reminded of seeing an open air production at Kenilworth Castle where the Executioners Wife was played by Brackett (or possibly Hinge) and the little list started with "Men who dress as women and take work from honest girls."

Luckily... or not... I refuse to use autotune on principle... instead it'll just be... err... 'free-form'... I can't hold a note for a second either, when it comes to singing

.wav is best, as I've more flexability to mangle it err I mean manipulate it without loosing quality I'm not sure how it'll work... we each or, I shoujld say, you each, seem to be on differnt musicals... so maybe just a ... err... medly I'm sure it can be turned into something though no matter how its sung

Remember to lettuce know when this opus is ready...we'll feature it in , and h5ringer and Awix can write reviews...we'll give them hazard pay...

Oh, is there not one entry here
Well-constructed and compelling
That makes its subject matter clear
And gives a nod to proper spelling?

That would not share quite willingly

Alas! there’s not one entry here
Whose researcher felt motivation
To submit it to Peer Review
and see it through to publication!

(more available upon request)

It is now the law anyone who's submitted some lyrics has to go and record them!

I think that's a brilliant law!

Unfortunately, I have no recording equipment and no microphone, so 2legs will have to do mine for me.

And yes, let's hear more, please.

Oh, is there not one entry here
Whose genre-bending complication
Have caused all hope to disappear
Of ever winning publication?
To such an one, if such there be,
I swear if you appear in
Alternative Writing Workshop
However odd you be – I’ll read you!
However strange you be,
If you appear in A-Dub-Dub,
However weird you be – I’ll read you,
I'll review you, comment too, I'll read you!

Chorus: Alas! there’s not one entry here
Whose bizarre imagination
Has caused all hope to disappear
Of ever winning publication!

Not one?

Chorus: No, no, not one!

Not one?

Chorus: No, no …

(more? )

and helpless laughter. Absolutely.

Three little pendant peeps are we,
Not so concerned with hypocrisy,
Spelling's good (but not so free!),
Three little peeps are we!

We will comment on what you've done,
If we don't like it we'll toss a bun,
Don't be hurt, it is all in fun!
Three little peeps!
Three little pendant peeps are we!

Three little peeps are very wary,
Backing their jibes with dictionaries,
Grammar conforms like the military,
Three little peeps are we!

One little peep might be taught in school.
Two little peeps might be teaching- cool!
All little peeps know the golden rule,
All of the peeps might not!

Three little pendant peeps are we,
Not so concerned with hypocrisy,
Spelling's good (but not so free!),
Three little peeps are we!

I must go dig out where I hid my MIDI keyboard and fire-up the orchestial soundbanks in anticipation

Good one.

I...almost...hate to do this...almost, but not quite:

Did you mean 'pedants'?
