Wok music

[Sibling DavidH]

Today MrsH gave me my morning smack on the head; this time with the wok, which happened to be handy.  The ringing music in my ears inspired a profound philosophical train of thought: How many of our favourite songs contain the word 'wok'?

Obviously there's the Wok and Loll variety, like Wok Alound the Crock.  But even many hymns (Wok of Ages, Creft for Me) and even soccer anthems (You'll Never Wok Arone) contain references to that crassic cooking imprement.

No doubt my highly creative and intelligent Siblings will think of a few more.

Wok up this morning
Got out of bed
Couldn't move at all...

Christians awok!  Salute the happy dawn.

Woks populi, woks dei.

Ich weiß nicht, wok soll es bedeuten,
Daß ich so traurig bin

O wok ye wha's in yon town,   
Ye see the e'enin sun upon,

Boer, wok zeg je van mijn kippen
Boer, wok zeg je van mijn haan.....

Wok shall we do with the drunken sailor?
