Anonymous', "Amazing Grace"
Better Lyrics:
Amazing Grace, how sweet a sound
Your voice is to my ears
I've never heard such dulcet tones
In all of my years
Your voice is to my ears
I've never heard such dulcet tones
In all of my years
Original Lyrics:
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind, but now, I see
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind, but now, I see

Anonymous', "Pop Goes the Weasel"
Better Lyrics:
Thirty candles on an iced cake
At the birthday party
When she bent down to blow them all out
"Oops, shit! I farted!"
At the birthday party
When she bent down to blow them all out
"Oops, shit! I farted!"
Original Lyrics:
Half a pound of tuppenny rice
Half a pound of treacle
That's the way the money goes
Pop goes the weasel
Half a pound of treacle
That's the way the money goes
Pop goes the weasel

Early in the morning?
