The first verse needs a bit of scansion work, but then it's good to go at OVFF.

There have been a series of Argo punning verses on r.m.f lately (e.g., "Bland in Fargo"), which makes me want to sing it as "Let it all go," but I suppose there are limits. :)

I think you should hold that last one in. I've heard scatalogical "Let it Go" parodies, and it isn't pretty.

Better?

Yes, the scansion looks much better now.

BTW, the performances of "Boston Burglar" that I've heard bear only a family resemblance to BFA.

Fair, but BFA on the Pegasus site credits Boston Burglar, so with respect it seems to make sense to maintain the tune credit.

And here I was thinking of something with a chorus like:

Not Argo, not Argo,
They don't want us anymore..

That might be fun to do as well! But I decided to go the other way. :)

Anyway, this way is shorter.

a) My first thought on reading your tweet was "aw sh*t, who died?" b) You aren't sorry.

Oops. I can't really easily predict what services will get pinged when I livejournal (well, dreamwidth) and how.
