The Lyrics
I was sitting at my desk with “The Joy of Lex” composing palindromes;
When along came a thought, where sometimes seems nobody’s home:
If you’re gonna write some wordplay, go with what you understand
Cause you start off every morning, Jumble puzzle in your hand
There’s no doubt that I can go both ways in handling anagrams,
But first I’d need return a message, I was told that a ‘Sam’ rang.
CHORUS:
I’ve used anagrams, Sam
Helps to snag a ram, man
Told my Ma, “Gas! Ran!”, Sam
Ram sang a NASA-gram, Sam
Sing and have some fun, man?
Wordplay 201.
