susandennis said she had never heard of lyric books, so I plucked a couple of the
pirated pre-copyright agreement books I bought in Thailand in the 70's, and scanned in a few pages. The mistakes are not as plentiful as I remembered, at least in these booklets. I just spotted on the shelf two full sized books which probably include a lot of amusing lyrics, but it's tired and I'm getting late, so here you go.
