It's not often I laugh out loud at the internets. I might even have to unearth some vinyl.

Glad to be of service.

I'm sure I have a copy of 'Snap, crackle and bop, er, somewhere...

Heh. Reminds me of the time Dominica DeGrandis first came to a DevopsDays and emerged somewhat shaken by the rather salty language employed by the speakers. That GeneJohn Vincent has a right potty-mouth on him.

Yep, made me laugh out loud! Love it. Is it your work?

It's, um, heavily inspired by John Cooper-Clarke's 'Evidently Chickentown'

Even before I saw this comment your pome read itself in my head in that peculiar JCC nasal whine.

Splendid stuff.

JCC's pome is based on a WW1 navy song: https://www.dpmms.cam.ac.uk/~tf/poem24.html

The version on 'Snap, Crackle & Bop' was slightly more true to the original in that in that most of the swear words were bloodys, not fuckings. But when JCC performs it now, he puts in the full F-load:
