Need a new phonetic alphabet

Ok, just found this posted on another site:

Everyone listen to “Crazy ABC” by Barenaked Ladies. Its on their album “Snacktime”.

It’s the alphabet song with every letter begining with a silent.

I'm on campus so can't download it but want a listen.

It does actually have to start with the correct letter though, it should just sound as if it doesn't.

I saw this a bit late and most of the letters I'd have chosen have already been uses (C-Csar/T-tzar, W-wreath etc) so I'm struggling but I'll keep thinking on it.

Lhasa-Apso is close to being suitable as I've heard it pronounced Ha-sa-ap-so but correctly the L should be in there.
 
Myself and a few chaps on the night shift did this a number months ago, we 'rolled it out' to the our colleagues in India one evening, hilarity ensued, followed by a reprimand and a mandatory course in something called 'diversity'...

"Yes my name is Graham, that's gnash, rape, are, heir, are, mnemonic"

Diversity. That's exactly what you were doing - diversifying the phonetic alphabet. :p Excellent story, especially since it is for our colleagues in India also!
