      I really do wish they would teach people to sing it right. Yes it’s hard. Long stretches and weird timing. But it’s a good exercise. Kinda like (atheist here) giving up coffee for Lent. I wish a lot of old fashioned skills were still widely taught. Doesn’t mean anyone has to wrap their whole life around those skills.

    *Lyrics*
    The Star Spangled Banner is hard to sing
    Blame it on the alcohol or Francis Scott Key
    Oh say, oh say, oh can't you see
    That dag-gone flag song is hard to sing
    Roseanne had some trouble with it
    Carl Lewis was pretty bad
    Fergie had a moment
    Ingrid went to rehab
    It was the Battle of Baltimore
    The year is 1810 and four
    Francis Scott Key wrote a poem real quick
    And he set it to a tune by Mr. John Smith
    That's how we got it
    The Defense of Fort McHenry is a difficult tune
    Hell I can hardly sing but it sure beats me
    It can prob-ly beat you, too
    It's got a melody spannin' centuries
    With words I've never used
    And you mostly gotta sing it in front of a big ole herd of drunken dudes
    It's hard to do
    And it's hard enough to sing
    Let alone enough to mean
    You got war and gore on the TV screen
    And every damn thing's a conspiracy
    Man, Star Spangled Banner's kinda hard to sing
    uh-huh
