The Lyrics
Maple vice, maple vice—
In I bore, sap flows sweetly.
Clear and light, what a sight!
In I re-bore discreetly.
Walked in the snow
To where these booms* grow;
Booming growth, my timber.
Maple vice, maple vice—
Bless'd**, my homed lance is splintered!
*from the Dutch boom: tree, pole, beam
**from French blesser: wound, injure
In I bore, sap flows sweetly.
Clear and light, what a sight!
In I re-bore discreetly.
Walked in the snow
To where these booms* grow;
Booming growth, my timber.
Maple vice, maple vice—
Bless'd**, my homed lance is splintered!
*from the Dutch boom: tree, pole, beam
**from French blesser: wound, injure

I wondered whether to click on this or not. I did several of them and I got SICK of the song, but this didn't bring back gruesome memories. It looked very good. :D 5's

I remember "Maple Vice." Don Johnson and Bob Newhart played cops in Vermont. Weird show.
