If any of you have even a drop of Italian blood, are friends with and/or married to an Italian, then you are familiar with the original version of this song. Keep the melody of Dean Martin's song That's Amore in mind as you read these revised lyrics.
When the moon hits your eye
Like a big pizza pie
That's amore.
When an eel bites your hand
And that's not what you planned
That's a moray.
When our habits are strange
And our customs deranged
That's our mores.
When your horse munches straw
And the bales total four
That's some more hay.
When a Japanese knight
Waves his sword in a fight
That's Samurai.
When Othello's poor wife
She gets strangled in strife
That's a Moor, eh?
When your sheep go to graze
In a damp marshy place
That's a moor, eh?
When your boat comes home fine
And you tied up her line
That's a moor, eh?
When you ace your last tests
Like you did all the rest
That's some more A's!
When on Mt. Cook you see
an aborigine
That's a Maori.
A comedian-ham
With the name Amsterdam
That's a Morey.
When your chocolate graham
Is so full and so crammed
That's a s'more.
When you've had quite enough
Of this dumb rhyming stuff
That's No more! eh?
