NEW NATIONAL ANTHEMS REQUIRED

[Captain Oates 911]

Apparently the new Citizens sing the national anthem which is all about rockets and bombs and fighting the British and their blood has wiped out their foul footsteps etc

The British national anthems is no better and talks about scattering enemies and sets out the right of Empire, defending against latent foes etc

Seems to me that both these blood thirsty anthems should be sent to the archives of history and we now need something jollier and less blood curdling and more optimistic and forward looking and relevant to people. People don't want never ending blood and war - they want houses and jobs and health care and NO war.

There must be something more to citizenship of either country than hate and blood and warmongering ?

Despite my rabid atheistic ways, I've always been a fan of "God Bless America" as sung by Kate Smith. Plus, it has the great line "white with foam," which always makes me giggle.

How well you know me, Alan. Anyway, it was you who taught me about the importance of whipped cream in the first place.

also in the second place. Don't forget the second place.

I think I will compose a new anthem to replace BOTH anthems.

Brit:

It will celebrate Timothy Taylors Championship ales from sea to muddy sea

and the only rockets will be November 5th when we celebrate burning Catholics (Guy Fawkes)

(The pakistanis can get on board with that no prob)

and council houses will spring from every puddle and free tattos will, at last be available on the national health and ASBOS come with a benefit allowance

USA

Walmart shall stride hand in hand with the Big Mac Clown across the badlands and the weasyanna swamps and lead the way for rising oriental nations to lift them from slim skelitoned survitude into the stout defenders of the ways of freedom as amended by the laws of the Federal, State, City and Town councils and neighborhood associations and god.

These are only a few theme ideas and it needs to take form via someone musical.

I never forget the second place! I like the second place as much as the first.

Excellent starting points, Alan.

Babylon - That's in Iraq you know - they have a big demand for them until the end of 2011 or until don't ask don't tell ends - whichever comes first

[Captain Oates 911]

anyway the bra strangled spanner can't be totally accurate as not all Brits have foul footsteps

For instance Fergie used to suck her accountant's toes - and he was a Brit
