Original text from a song written by my wife in 1989, from the pronunciation section of our dictionary:
Tie high, island, buy sky
soldier, sage, exaggerate
(car, account, bacchanal, back)
kill rake, sikh walk, Iraq
calm more, i'm limb, home
(gnat knife,mnemonic, not done)
live mile, call she'll, faille
Ah, English, Sprechen Sie?
Ah, English, no comprende
Scanning an old dot-matrix printout of these lyrics, the OCR software came up with:
