The Lyrics

Staid old guys
Staid old guys
Blue-blood upper crust scions

Though well read
Still they'll wed
Kissing cousins they've "tried on"

"Fondness" in fam-i-lies--fool's sex-ess
Gene re-cessives, their doom

Inbred lot!
Blood won't clot!
He-mo-philia's* heir-looms!

John, alvin, Matthias, Rick, Meriadoc, AFW and PMS! Thanks for the humorous comments-- hope you aren't too sick of these ditties... as they're short, at least there's no need to waste good money on an Evelyn Woods course!
