OK, I am getting over a bug and had the workbench loaded down with my On30 Porters in various stages of completion, and it was lots of fun just working on these simple, smooth-running models. So I was inspired to pen this gritty little ditty:
Lay Off Of My 0-4-2's
(To the tune "Blue Suede Shoes" - Apologies to Elvis Presley, but he would approve)
You can cut all my rails
Pull all my pins
Water down my paint until its runny and thin.
You can do anything that you wanna do,
But uh-uh honey, lay off of them Porters,
Don't you - mess with my O-4-2s...
You can do anything, but lay off of my O-4-2s.
You can play with my Shay,
run it into the ground.
Run my railtruck around and around.
You can smoke my decoders,
my DCC too,
But uh-uh honey, lay off of my Porters,
Don't you - mess with my O-4-2s...
You can do anything, but lay off of my O-4-2s.
0-4-0's and 0-4-2s,
0-4-0's and 0-4-2s,
0-4-0's and 0-4-2s,
You can do anything, but lay off of my O-4-2s.id="blue">
See why I don't write songs for a living? [xx(]
