SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Song Challenge:   Love And Spots!!  Well, Challenge!rs -- Spring has sprung for most of us, and of course, at this time of year, every species experiences a little flutter of the heart and then, well, instinct takes over...   Perhaps inspired by his own 'instincts', our own Hyperabid has suggested the Challenge! topic of "first crushes and the opposite sex moving from pain in the *rse to "Why has God blessed me with a sex drive and acne at the same time!??".   An excellent and timely suggestion.   So, there you go Challenge!rs -- Songs about 'your first love and/or crush'.   Now I know we've all gone through this -- let's see what you can put to a tune!

A Maiden's Plaint by SINSULL
(To the Tune " Ashokan Farewell")

He drew me near; he smelled of beer
I turned my head; he bit my ear.
But at least I'm not sitting at home.
His sweaty palm is on my arm
It's wandering up; he feigns a yawn
Then noisily gnaws on his gum.

If I were blond, I would wander
With tall Peter Fonda.
Were I thin and clear-skinned, and unique
I'd be the queen of the prom
A beauty of wonder
Not stuck with this pimply geek.
