A is for "aisle"...

I just heard this cute little song on Pandora. It includes a bunch of banter, as Barenaked Ladies are wont to do, but I've pared out most of it here.

A is for "aisle"
B is for "bdellium"
C is for "czar"
And if you see him, would you mind telling him
D is for "djinn"
E for "Euphrates"
F is for "fohn"
But not like when I call the ladies
G is for "gnarly"
H is for "hour"
I is for "irk"
J is for "jalapeno"
Good in either corn or flour... tortillas
K is for "knickknack"
L is for "llama"
(What's so strange about "llama"?
It starts with two Ls.
What's the second one for?
No idea.)
M is for "mnemonic"
N is for "ngomo"
O is for "ouija" board
P for "pneumonia," "pterodactyl," and "psychosis"
Q is for "qat"
R is for "argyle"
(No, it isn't.
Okay, you're right, I couldn't find a good R word.)
S is for "Saar"
A lovely German river
T for "tsunami"
A wave that makes me quiver
U is for "urn"
But not like earning money
V for "vraisemblance"
From French and therefore kind of funny
W for "wren," "wrinkly," and "who"
X is for "Xian"
An ancient Chinese city, true
Y is for "yiperite"
A very nasty gas
And zed's the final letter
And by final I mean last
(Okay, when you say "zed," for the benefit of our American friends, you really mean Z, right?
No, I mean zed. Like, Zed Zed Top.)
