I've created an icon blank and now I want text for it. I started with "Done Now" but really didn't care for it as much as I thought I would.

Oh, how *embarrassing.* I could have asked Auntie Google first.
It's "Pirate Jenny."
And I didn't know it was originally in German, nor from The Threepenny Opera.
... wow, is my ignorance showing.
Okay....I had a chance to learn something today!
And I'm going to go out on a limb and say the copy I heard was not sung at a con, but was *probably* sung by Nina Simone. I can't find a clip online, but... whoever she is, you
believe her
when she sings it.
