I just discovered that you can put the lyrics to songs onto your iPod. That way you can read the lyrics while you sing along [to music noone can hear but you].
The lyrics will appear in the window that usually displays the album artwork.
To add lyrics to any song in your iTunes desktop, just right click on the song, hit Get Info, and paste in whatever lyric you want -- lyrics are easily google-able by searching one line in quotation marks.
I want to sing to exactly two songs. Maybe you can guess the song or artists...
1.
" God save donald duck, vaudeville and variety
We are the desperate dan appreciation society
We are the custard pie appreciation consortium
God save the george cross and all those who were awarded them
We are the sherlock holmes english speaking vernacular
Help save fu manchu, moriarty and dracula"
2.
"In eighteen hundred and forty five
When Daniel OConnell he was alive
I
was
wearing
Corduroybritchesdiggingditchespullingswitchesdodging hitchers:
I was working on the railway"

1) The Kinks-The Village Green Preservation Society (too easy)
2)I have no idea- but sounds like Guthrie?
What did I win?

While you're the only one who hears what you're singing to, you're also the only one who can't hear your singing.
Not that that stops me. Do the lyrics show up on a Nano?

I didn't know (1), but (2) is "Paddy Works on the Railway," or a variation thereof. I think I heard that version on the children's TV show "Shining Time station."
