Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky
As lucky can be

Chim chiminey
Chim chiminey
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when
I shake 'ands with you
Or blow me a kiss
And that's lucky too

*cries eyes out*

God, I love that song. Skunk and Ted can jam on it as Dick sings.

Crud! The only way to remove that is to have a brain cell surgically taken out. :frowning:

Oh, shoot - and I just have the one.

Still, I must say I was pretty excited when at the age of 9 I saw Shaun at a nearby table at Trader Vic's in Los Angeles, having dinner with a bunch of people- including his Mom, Shirley Jones.
