A song of palindromes....

"Bob"

I, man, am regal - a German am I
Never odd or even
If I had a hi-fi
Madam, I'm Adam
Too hot to hoot
No lemons, no melon
Too bad I hid a boot
Lisa Bonet ate no basil
Warsaw was raw
Was it a car or a cat I saw?

Rise to vote, sir
Do geese see god?
"Do nine men interpret?" "Nine men," I nod
Rats live on no evil star
Won't lovers revolt now?
Race fast, safe car
Pa's a sap
Ma is as selfless as I am
May a moody baby doom a yam?

Ah, Satan sees Natasha
No devil lived on
Lonely Tylenol
Not a banana baton
No "x" in "Nixon"
O, stone, be not so
O Geronimo, no minor ego
"Naomi," I moan
"A Toyota's a Toyota"
A dog, a panic in a pagoda

Oh no! Don Ho!
Nurse, I spy gypsies - run!
Senile felines
Now I see bees I won
UFO tofu
We panic in a pew
Oozy rat in a sanitary zoo
God! A red nugget! A fat egg under a dog!
Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog

I've heard this song so many times, and I never got that they were palindromes. Thank you for making me realize that this Weird Al song was just as brilliant as all his others; I just didn't understand it.

What travis said, that's impressive. Too bad it doesn't make much sense though.

Its okay... a lot of those palindromes I have seen before so I know he didn't write them himself...

Now, if the ENTIRE SONG was a palindrome, then I'd be impressed.

Makes me think Weird Al Yankovic is even more of a baller than I previously thought.

So would the program use a dictionary to find the latter half of a start you put?

For instance you enter, "Dog"

Parse each letter then use the hex to reverse it, search the dictionary to find "god"?
