But at some point in 1995, we wrote the following "poem:"
shalom
malomar
incense
salad bar
ravioli
davenport
nested table
food court
egg rolls
turkey dogs
finesse
wooden clogs
lazy Susan
ketchup bottle
plain yogurt
full throttle
Yes, I had a long often-rhyming-but-never-capitalized-experimental-poetry phase.
I believe these verses remain open to a number of interesting interpretations.

i interpreted humming them along to "we didn't start the fire"
genius. (you, not my humming)
I bet your humming was just as genius.
I also think that I probably didn't realize it could be done to that tune back when I wrote it. I probably just thought I was veeery clever. ;)
i did the same thing and with the exception of the last two lines it totally works with BJ's frenetic melody.
Well, those last two lines give me plausible deniability in terms of whether or not I was copying the song, right? Just like Vanilla Ice.
