Any Tom Lehrer fans out there?

If you know him, you may feel it's arrogant to write a parody of him, since he is probably the best satiric songwriter in the universe.

However, I had the cojones to do it.

Those of you who know me, will probably know where this is coming from!

Here's the original. You can even listen to the melody, and sing along!

National Brotherhood Week

Oh the Angles hate the Saxons,
and the Saxons hate the Angles,
the Normans hate the Frisians,
and everybody hates the Jutes.

But during National Brotherhood Week,
National Brotherhood Week,
It's National Don't-Eviscerate
One-Another-hood Week,
go up and shoot the breeze
with your Celtic enemies,
you won't have to club them if you try!
