WoodDorks of Bumfuk - A Song!

Just so there's no confusion - this is to be sung to the tune of
Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon.


I saw a WoodDork with a Christmas Toolist in his hand
Walking through the streets of Bumfuk in the rain
He was looking for the place called Lee Valley
Going to get his bad self a Lie-Nielson plane

Ahhoooo
WoodDorks of Bumfuk
Ahhoooo

(Repeat)

You hear him howling around your shop's back door
Better not let him in
Ole Robby Lee got held up late last night
WoodDorks of Bumfuk again

Ahhoooo
WoodDorks of Bumfuk
Ahhoooo

(Repeat)

He's the barely handy gent who's money's always spent
You better stay away from him
He'll plane your lungs out, Jim
(Huh!)
He'd like to meet Tim Taylor

Ahhoooo
WoodDorks of Bumfuk
Ahhoooo

(Repeat)

Well, I saw Norm Abram talking on the screen
Doing the WoodDorks of Bumfuk
I saw Roy Underhill talking on the screen
(Uh!)
Doing the WoodDorks of Bumfuk

I saw a WoodDork planing a hunk of nasty crossgrained Cocobolo
His curl was perfect

(Heh!)

Ahhoooo
WoodDorks of Bumfuk
(Tage Frid)
Ahhoooo

Draw blood


(Apologies to Mr. Zevon - RIP)

That's "wabbet," dude, and don't forget it.
Tom could also get seriously obscure and do a takeoff on "Le Mortise
D'Arthur."

If and *only*if* the Brunhilda-equivalent role is filled by a be-Fudd-led
singer with a speech defect. And, BTW, it's -not- that way in the original
script, either. Mel did the voice 'personalities' _without_ explicit cues
in the script text.

>Tom could also get seriously obscure and do a takeoff on "Le Mortise

With Sir Mandrel in a supporting role, no doubt.

And the enchantress Morgan eBay.

Tom,
This latest spate of bad weather we're having {here in Philly area} must
have you 'cold & lonely' in the shop. {Wood that be considered 'Cabinet

Which is unusual in itself; she typically just 'glances & trashes' what I

Tom, now that you're warmed up, how about someting epic, something big,
something long-striding across history's littered stage. Set it to The Ring
of the Nibelungen. Or better, the Norse saga of the Ragnorak, when humans
armed with nothing but blue Marples face the gods in the Final Battle.
Let it spring fully-formed from your mind, as though from the forehead of
Zeus, eh.
