Uh ... well  ...  um ... yeah .... but, uh, what, exactly, is a parched bridge? Thirsty?  The "action verdigris" works well.

YES..........!

We finally found a line that rhymes and won't mind singing 30 times or so during the performance of this auspicious opus.

Oh happy day. :-)

OK.  If you really want line one to rhyme with the original, and "parched" is acceptable:


.. and a parched bridge and action verdigris (?!?!?)

Grin... A-flat eh... ? Hard to put "With" in front of it... but it gives me an idea for a day 1 !... see below. We've no doubt not heard the last of the first line :):)

On the 15th day of December a piano came to me 
 
  Fifteen butts a-bounding 
  Fourteen wobbly whippens 
  Thirteen coins a-clinking, 
  Twelve tubby bass strings, 
  Eleven jacks a-jumping, 
  Ten grungy grommets, 
  Nine brittle bridles, 
  Eight damaged dampers, 
  Seven fractured flanges, 
  Six errant elbows, 
  Five broken strings ! 
  Four coats of paint, 
  Three warped posts, 
  Two pedals bent, 
  With parched board and 50 cents flat !
