Just saw this on FB - and thought you ladies would be amused.

[b]The Square Roundabout (Tune of Wild Rover)[/b]

I've been in the Middle East for many a year,
...And I 've spent on all my money on whiskey & beer,
This week I was shocked when I was out,
When sky news announced there was a square roundabout

Chorus
And it's no, nay, never
I hear you shout
Could there be such a thing
As a square roundabout

I went into the city to check it out,
There was thousands of people at the Pearl Roundabout,
You could get cups of tea and popcorn galore
They even had tents so you could sleep on the floor

Chorus - And it's no, nay, never ......

Six hundred thousand came out on the streets,
There was Facebook & bloggers & plenty of tweets,
The Sunni's & Shia's tried to figure it out,
Could there be such a thing as a square roundabout

Chorus - And it's no, nay, never ......

The word went to Saudi and the King found out
And he said he must see this magic roundabout
So we will send in the lads and clear them all out
And I 'll go and check out this square roundabout

Chorus - And it's no, nay, never ......

Thanks to Sky News, Al Jazeera & the BBC,
They sent pictures worldwide for the whole world to see,
The aerial shots left little doubt,
That there's no ******* thing as a square roundabout

Chorus
And it's no, nay, never,
I hear you shout,
That there's no ******* thing
As a square roundabout
