Here we have the answer to Monday's quiz. Was this one easier or harder than the first? I hope you didn't stoop to looking up the answer on the Internet.
"What was the first first name used in the song Name Game?" The original went this way . . .
Shirley
Shirley, Shirley bo-ber-ley, bo-na-na fanna fo-fer-ley, fee-fi-mo-mer-ley, Shirley
The correct answer is "Shirley"
. . . but a popular version by a cover group went this way.
Shelley
Shelley, Shelley bo belly, bo-na-na panna fo-felley, fee-fi-mo melly, Shelley.
This is the version we sang around our house.
Why don't we have songs with great romantic lyrics like this any more?
