A song for today

H - A - double-L - I - G - A - N spells Halligan.
She tried to get both James and Comey,
Her rabid boss’s mouth is foamy.
H - A - double-L - I - G - A - N, you see,
Is a name now in shame, ignominy is her game,
Halligan, that’s she!

Unrelated but also ‘For Today’—
It’s National Sardines Day!

PS. Gosh, I remember the original of that song—my mother used to sing it!
“H A double-R I,
G A N spells Harriman”.

Your version is clever!

I knew the lollipop version from elementary school. L - O, &c.

Why haven't I seen National Sardine Day before this? My Google Alert for “sardines” failed me.

And thanks for the compliment!
