I plummeted down and kept hopin'
The ground would be soft
Where I stopped being aloft
And for seconds it helped me with copin' [Raak] Isn't that more of a cleripede?

The good folk of Minsk, Belarus
Recently offered a truce (but to whom, to whom...?)

Who caused the Belgrano to sink

Who he called "fat duck"
As he crushed their newly laid bed (matrimoni is not a sin!)
