Oranges are not the only fruit? |

To be read with my accent. A professor once said to wrapt bunch of students:
There’s nothing that rhymes with orange.
A hand at the back rose high in the air
And a voice blurted out, ‘Door ‘inge.’ |

Written by jean.day (2323 comments posted) 29th September 2007 | | I've been trying to find a rhyme, but think maybe the professor is right. It reminded me of the song from Blondel - There's no rhyme for Richard. Great musical that - which didn't stay around long - but would be good for use in history lessons with kids. Tim Rice wrote the lyrics. I took my girls to see it in Manchester about 25 years ago. |
