This collection of satiric verses in the manner of Tom Lehrer was produced over a period of 35 years in four different countries. The material has appeared previously on record or cassettes, so it is appropriate that it should also make its appearance on the Web. The writer would like to thank all politicians, academics and others who have provided him with such outstanding material for derision and laughter.

Unfortunately, the Web at this point is not very kind to large sound files. To those who would like to hear what the author really sounds like when he performs his songs, there is a CD-ROM with the title "Oh Say, Can You See?" available. If you are interested, contact me at ode@pop.uky.edu.
