I found this take on the Shaft themesong hilarious....

Ya damne righte!

Wha be tha carl tha riske is hals wolt

SHAFT!
Verray!

Alle clepe tha carl ane badde mooder-

He be a man konne unnethes
Namo save is mayde konnes im.
JOHN SHAFT!


It gave me flashbacks to my junior year in high school when I had to memorize the opening lines of the Canterbury Tales. "Whan that April..." *shudder*
