bare, naked and crazy abcs

#34 in an ongoing series of posts celebrating the alphabet.

Nothing wrong with the traditional ABC song, but once in awhile it’s good to go crazy. Can you think of some head-turning words for each letter of the alphabet? When in doubt, go to the Barenaked Ladies for inspiration. Prior to listening to their “Crazy ABCs,” I hadn’t heard of “phon” or “qat.” And isn’t “vraisemblance” simply wonderful?

Goodbye mundane, hello pencil thin mustaches, a sip of cognac, warm brie.

What are you having for dinner tonight?

Filet of vraisemblance avec haricot verts.

Who brings your mail?

Monsieur Vraisemblance. Toujours un cadeau.

What are you writing about?

Vraisemblance, naturellement. Toujours, toujours!

See what I mean? It’s all good.

Knock yourself out.  And you gotta love a group who names an album, “Snack Time.”

Oh, gotta mention this: How do you pronounce “llama”? I always thought it rhymed with “drama.” Maybe it’s a Canadian thing . . . or the same people who think “Jama” rhymes with “drama.” ☺
