Babelfishing Poetry: "Exercise Your Boy!"
Babelfishing Poetry: "Exercise Your Boy!"
Welcome to more Babelfishing poetry, where I take song lyrics, run them through an on-line translator such as (but not necessarily) Babelfish, nudge the punctuation a bit, and wind up with a quirky kind of poem.
This week's feature is the popular song from the 1930s "Livin' in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight," popularized by Maurice Chevalier (listen to Chevalier's version here, or listen to this version by Bing Crosby and the Paul Whiteman Orchestra here, or listen, if you dare, to a campy falsetto version by Tiny Tim here). Enjoy.
Exercise Your Boy!
Unfavorable intention!
Confidentiality!
Life that is overwhelming!
Unsatisfactory.
A warrior with a mysterious value.
I'm in the sea.
Exercise your boy!
I think not.
As I do it, I do it, I do it, I do it, I do it, I do it.
Come on, ma'am.
No, this is a newspaper.
No, don't stop it.
Our lives are over.
If I did, I would last.
I would do it so.
Call announcement.
I don't know two dangerous mes.
On Kronos, there is no word about Kronos.
I'm sorry, I'm leaving.
I'm here.
Madam, come.
We will stay here, according to our obligations.
I am the only one who is comfortable with the situation.
I'm done!
She speaks to the sleeping and the eye.
I'm happy to say that.
Woo-hoo, tell me!
