The song below is absolutely my work. It’s true that the facts in
the post were inspired (researched… stolen) from the life of
Mahatma Gandhi. It’s true that the tune of the song is inspired
(borrowed… stolen) from the Disney (evil amalgamation of
bloodsucking lawyers without a hint of the creativity of its founder)
Corp movie, Mary Poppins. It’s true the concept of the lyric is
inspired (taken… stolen) from a joke that made the rounds in the
early days of the internet.
But this song is all mine!
The Gandhi Song
by Headley Hauser (except the
tune, concept or details)
Now
I will walk without my shoes on dirt or rock or sand
And
I have walked so many miles across this Indian land
Now
you may think I'm 5'4" but I'm not quite 5'3"
For
and inch of callus underfoot just makes a taller me.
Chorus
I'm
a super calloused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis
You
may think my feet are bad, but my breath, it is the grossest
Some
people, they may say I'm great, I really hate to boastest
I'm
just, super callused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis.
Hum
diddle iddle dum diddle eye
You
eat a little bit more than I
Last
night I had a spoon of mush and in it was a gnat
My
heart was filled with such distress that out that gnat I spat
Don’t
know what people see in food, it makes me really blue
I
think I'll go without it for at least a week or two
Repeat Chorus
The
party gave a rally and it's me they want to hear
I
just had some onion juice cause I won't drink the beer
Still
no one heard a word I said, cause when it came my turn
From
out my mouth there came a blast to make Nehru’s jacket burn
Repeat Chorus (followed by)
I'm
a super callused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis
Sikhs
and Muslims are OK but to Buddha I'm am closest
More
peaceful than that Mao Tse Tung,
less fiery than Moses
I'm
that super callused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis
Last post I had Tom Lehrer's Elements Song. Here's more from him.
