Crazy ABC?s
Barenaked Ladies
I've endeavoured to lay it out by when Edd & Steve's lines are,

, , , 

Hey Steve. 
Hey Ed, that sounds nice, what is it?
Thank you, it's a, it's an alphabet song I'm working on.
Oh great, a whole new alphabet, I just learned the old one.

A is for aisle,  is for bdellium, 
 is for czar, And if you see him would you mind telling him?

Okay, hang on a second, yeah aisle, bdellium?
Yeah, aisle like a, like a theater. 
Alright, okay and bdellium?
Bdellium, it's a, it?s a gum like tree resin, it starts with a silent .
And then czar? 
Yeah, it's uh like a Russian czar, You know everybody knows apple, ball and cat, 
I wanted to get into some, you know some stranger words.
Right, I see what you're doing.

 is for djinn,  for Euphrates,
 is for fohn, but not like when I call the ladies.

I thought phone started with a P like a Ph.
No, it's  O  N, it's a, it's a kind of wind.
Yeah, I know what you mean by wind.
 for gnarly, I for irk,  is for hour,
J for jalapeño, good in either corn or flour.
Tortillas, let us rhyme
K is for knick knack, L is for llama.
Pramma, llama, ding, what's so strange about llama?
Llama, it starts with two L's. 
What's the second one for?
No idea 
I know, Loser.
M for mnemonic, N is for ndomo, O is for Ouija board
P for pneumonia, pterodactyl and psychosis, Q is for qat
Okay, Q? Qat? What? 
Yeah, it's uh Q  T, it's an evergreen shrub. It's a perfect scrabble word, 
because it's a Q with no U, there's not many of those. 
You have too much time on your hands.

R is for Argyle, 
No it isn't
Okay, you're right, I couldn't find a good R word

S is for Saar, a lovely German river,
T for tsunami, a wave that makes me quiver.
U is for urn, but not like earning money,
V for vraisemblance from French and therefore kind of funny.
W for wren, wrinkly and who,
X is for Xian, an ancient Chinese city, true.
Ancient Chinese city, huh? My guitar player, some hotshot.
Y is for yiperite, a very nasty gas,
and zed's the final letter and by final I mean last.

 (until the end)

Okay, when you say zed for the benefit of our American friends, 
You really mean Zee, right?
No, I mean zed, like, like Zed Zed Top. 
Zed Zed Top? 
Yeah, you know the guys with the big long beards well, 
except the guy whose name is Beard, he has a moustache.
I always thought that was interesting. You done with the alphabet? 
No, extra letters I haven't heard of? 
I think so.
This was a great help, I think with the contribution you made to world literacy
Well, I'm just saying, kids I'm just saying, think outside the box a little bit. 
Box with an R!
Yeah, well, no box with a  A L K S like a pitcher
Ah, as opposed to     S
Right, think outside the box, get into some Rochmaninov
That's Rochmaninov with a W.
