KrYdderi eller krØdderi på tilværelsen...?

Når nu en vis herre snakker helt vildt "ikke-rigs-dansk" (dumt ord, ikke?), så kan sprogmennesket (OG jazz-mennesket!) i mig selvfølgelig ikke lade være med at komme til at tænke på den her lille søde sag af en sang...:

Verse
Things have come to a pretty pass
Our romance is growing flat,
For you like this and the other
While I go for this and that,
Goodness knows what the end will be
Oh I don't know where I'm at
It looks as if we two will never be one
Something must be done:

Chorus - 1
You say eather and I say either
You say neather and I say neither
Eather, either Neather, neither
Let's call the whole thing off.

You like potato and I like potahto
You like tomato and I like tomahto
Potato, potahto, Tomato, tomahto
Let's call the whole thing off

But oh, if we call the whole thing off
then we must part
And oh, if we ever part
then that might break my heart

So if you like pyjamas and I like pyjahmas,
I'll wear pyjamas and give up pyajahmas
For we know we need each other so we
better call the calling off off

Let's call the whole thing off.


Chorus - 2
You say laughter and I say larfter,
You say after and I say arfter
Laughter, larfter after arfter
Let's call the whole thing off

You like vanilla and I like vanella,
You saspiralla and I saspirella
Vanilla vanella chocolate - strawberry
Let's call the whole thing off

But oh if we call the whole thing off
then we must part
And oh, if we ever part,
then that might break my heart

So if you go for oysters and I go for ersters,
I'll order oysters and cancel the ersters
For we know we need each other so we,
Better call the calling off off

Let's call the whole thing off.


Chorus - 3
I say father, and you say pater,
I say mother and you say mater
Pater, mater Uncle, auntie
Let's call the whole thing off.

I like bananas and you like banahnahs,
I say Havana and I get Havahnah
Bananas, banahnahs Havana, Havahnah
Go your way, I'll go mine

So if I go for scallops and you go for lobsters,
So all right no contest - we'll order lobseter
For we know we need each other so we
Better call the calling off off.

Let's call the whole thing off.

... Og ja, jeg har set "When Harry met Sally" en milliard gange! !-)

P.s.
I Ordbog Over det danske Sprog (ODS) er det anført, at ordet 'krydderi' især i Kbh. udtales med en mere ø-agtig vokalværdi end i resten af landet. Som om dét gør det i orden at sige det med det dér fesne 'y', altsååå!!
