Challenge: PALINDROMELiner Notes
This baritone #ukulele #nonsense arose from the palindrome challenge. I might have jumped the shark already. I think all I can really say in its favour is that it was fun trying to explain the story behind a couple of well known palindromes.
But then I got a bit bored and just strung a few more together that rhymed. #fuc
Lyrics
[G][D][C]
[C][D][G]
The [G]monks were [D]medi[C]tating
[C]No-one [D]made a [G]sound
[G]Silence [D]in the [C]temple
[C]Cross legs [D]on the [G]ground
When [G]in ran [D]an Al[C]satian
[C]Sharpened [D]teeth in [G]view
[G]Barking, [D]growling, [C]snarling while
We [C]panic [D]in a [G]pew
[Em]Everything was [D]manic
[Em]Until the fuss was [Dsus]ov[D]er
[C]A dog, a [G]panic
[C]In [D]a pa[G]goda
My [C]name is [D]Dr [G]Awkward
[C]And I [D]think it [G]best
To [C]keep things [D]in good [Em]order
[C]Step [D]on no [G]pets
[G][D][C]
[C][D][G]
I [G]couldn't [D]tell you [C]what it was
From [C]such a [D]brief en[G]counter
I [G]only [D]had a [C]glimpse of it
At [C]sixty [D]miles an [G]hour
It [Em]might have been a [D]Jaguar
With [Em]either wheels or [Dsus]pa[D]ws
[C]Was it a [G]car or
A [C]cat [D]I [G]saw?
My [C]name is [D]Dr [G]Awkward
And [C]you might [D]think me [G]odd
But the [C]question [D]I put [Em]forward is
[C]Do [D]geese see [G]God?
Mr. [F]Owl ate my [C]metal worm
He [F]was too hot to [Em]hoot
[F]Pull up if [C]I pull up
Too [F]bad I hid a [D]boot
[G][D][C]
[C][D][G]
My [C]name is [D]Dr [G]Awkward
And [C]you might [D]think me [G]odd
[C]Drab [D]as a [G]fool,
A[C]loof [D]as a [G]bard
[C]Do nine [D]men In[Em]terpret?
[C]Nine [D]men I [G]nod
