      I assume that it would be "off-topic" and that "informative" is reserved for informative comments about the article in question.

    "I want to tell you a story
    'Bout a little man if I can.
    A gnome named Grimble Gromble.
    And little gnomes stay in their homes,
    Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine.

    He wore a scarlet tunic,
    A blue-green hood, it looked quite good.
    He had a big adventure
    Amidst the grass, fresh air at last.
    Wining, dining, biding his time...

    And then one day...
    Hooray, another way for gnomes to say
    Ooh my...

    Look at the sky, look at the river.
    Isn't it good?
    Look at the sky, look at the river.
    Isn't it good?

    Winding, finding places to go.

    And then one day
    Hooray, another way for gnomes to say
    Ooh my ooh my..."

    Rest well Richard Wright...

      I'm having a lentil nightmare,
      everything has gone black,
      except for the lentils in the nightmare,
      they're a sort of greeny, yellow sort of colour,

      Ahhhhhhh

      etc.
