Package: fortunes
Version: 1:1.99.1-3.1
Severity: minor
/usr/share/games/fortunes/songs-poems contains a cute little song:
I'm N-ary the tree, I am,
N-ary the tree, I am, I am.
I'm getting traversed by the parser next door,
She's traversed me seven times before.
And ev'ry time it was an N-ary (N-ary!)
Never wouldn't ever do a binary. (No sir!)
I'm 'er eighth tree that was N-ary.
N-ary the tree I am, I am,
N-ary the tree I am.
-- Stolen from Paul Revere and the Raiders
Unfortunately, the attribution is incorrect; the song is ripped off from
"I'm Henry the Eighth, I am" by *Herman's Hermits*. cf:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herman's_Hermits
lyrics at:
http://www.mathematik.uni-ulm.de/paul/lyrics/hermanshermits/henry8.html
(and any number of other sites).
Compare to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Revere_&_The_Raiders
which doesn't mention any cover of the Henry the Eighth song, certainly
not any notable ones.
