Monday Sammy (an elegy upon the death of Sam)

I told Sam (username is that, not Sam-Crysi, or anyone else. hah) that if she died I would cry and write her an elegy to the tune of Yankie Doodle:

Monday Sammy died of flu,
while writing up a story.
She coughed and bled and choked on spit,
but died with such great glory!

Someday Sammy, don't loose hope!
Someday Sammy, glory!
We all knew you were the best
and secretly a Tory!


^_^ sing it! It actually works.

Haha, very cute.

However, "chocked" is not a word and I am assuming you meant "choked"

curse my spelling. Fire fox doesn't catch that? thanks Meg.

We all knew you were the best

*flail* I can't make the beats work for this line!


Although I hope Sam stays alive and well, this was very cute, Suz ^^

That is a strange line. I found you can do it either that way or "We all knew that you were the best." The way I have it is seven beats, and it is seven beats in the song, but it works with eight beats? It's weird. I was fighting with it.

Yeah, she's sickly, but not near death. Haha.

Oh, I see. Accent the We. I was accenting the all, and that's why I was having problems XD

Ooh, me likey. This is so catchy. Only, don't die, Sambo! That would be extremely vexing. XD

Lol, very funny. Choking on spit... ew-eth.

My only thing is that the last line, "secretly a Tory" just seems to have been thrown in there for the sake of the rhyme. Just a bit random, sa? Though as I can't give you another word to rhyme with "story", you might want to just ignore me.

Haha, no, as weird as it is, Tory fits. I suppose you would have to know how outrageously nerdy she is (and as a result, I am) with history. Sure, she's radically patriotic as well, but she loves England. xD

I get the history connections, yes, but Tory is to do with politics, so that leaves me trailing and clicking heels from the gate onwards, I'm afraid.
