What should we name the band?
Retards?
Petards, like that old British band?
Or Leetards,
like leotards?
Raise your hands!

Notes
That came seemingly out of nowhere. I was reading poems by Kenward Elmslie which had nothing to do with music or bands, put the book down, and this minipoem arrived. As I found out slightly later, The Petards was not a British band but a German one, whose lyrics were all in English. The song Lazy Moon above is from 1967.
