OT here, but from older thread today: Did someone say tattoos??
We came to town to see
That ol' tattooed lady
She was a sight to see
Tattooed from head to knee
My Uncle Ned was there
He came to gape and state
I've never, he declared
Seen such a freak so fair
And on her jaw
was the Royal Flying Corps
And on her back
Was the Union Jack
Now could you ask for more?
All up and down her spine
Were the Queen's Own Guards in line
And all around her hips
Sailed a fleet of battleships
And over her left kidney
Was a birds' eye view of Sydney
But what we liked best
Was upon her chest
A little home in Waikiki!
("The Tattooed Lady," performed by The Kingston Trio, from the album "String Along with The Kingston Trio")
