Citaat:Ik heb een spelling 's jekker
In die p c fan mei
Die vraag ik steeds te kei ken
Offer ook vouw ten sein
Ik tip een toets en mak een wort
En wacht op wad ie zeg
Of ik nauw goed zit offer keert
Hei ken in taal sein weg
Zo gouw er een ver gissing is
Zeg hei dat dus die rekt
Dan maak ik al men fouten gut Soda tut beter bekt
Ik dé dit stuk ook door 'm heen
Ben blei dat hei toen zij
Dat ie geen vouwtje fin den kon
In 't Neder lans fan mei
