T minus 3 and counting -- On the 22nd day of December a piano came to me With twenty two hammers a-hobbling Twenty one crusty keypins Twenty beckets a-buckling Nineteen shanks a-squiggling Eighteen keys a-knocking Seventeen barren backchecks Sixteen pins a-pommelled 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, From a Parson who wants it fixed free ! Cheers RicB
