Nicely done!

And particularly appropriate, as the words to "Eleanor Rigby" were originally written on a bar napkin.

That napkin later sold for $50,000, as I recall.

Eleanor Rigby's dead
Lo, lo, lo, lo, look at lonely people
Eleanor Rigby's dead
No, no, no, no, nobody darning her socks
Father McKenzie plays
alone with dirt along the shore
Where do they all belong
Eleanor Rigby, Eleanor Rigby

CYa!

Were these the actual napkin lyrics? Or are you really getting your poet game on? (if that's the correct vernacular expression...)

Which answer get's me the 50 grand? ;-)

The Moody Blue have a tune called Legend Of A Mind, about LSD guru Timothy Leary, a snippet of the lyrics from:

http://www.kaibab.org/moodies/mxsearch.htm

is in order:

Timothy Leary's dead.
No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
Timothy Leary's dead.
No, no, no, no, He's outside looking in.
He'll fly his astral plane,
Takes you trips around the bay,
Brings you back the same day,
Timothy Leary. Timothy Leary.

and so on...

If you know the tune, my hack filk makes sense, otherwise you're left wondering what the heck is going on here.

CYa!

Got it. I enjoy the Moody Blues, but have not heard that one. Obviously. ];-)
