Istanboa, a parody

Ever since I heard the name of Istanboa, a certain song keeps running through my head ( you've probably guessed which one. ) So I've decided to make a parody of Istanbul ( not Constantinople ) for Wizard101.
Istanboa was Qhatsandinople,
Now it's Istanboa not Qhatsandinople
Been a long time gone,
Old Qhatsandinople's
Still has Mirageish delight
On a moonlit night.
*
Every gal in Qhatsandinople,
Lives in Istanboa, not Qhatsandinople,
So if you've a date in Qhatsandinople
She'll be waiting in Istanboa.
*
So take me back to Qhatsandinople,
No, you can't go back to Qhatsandinople
Been a long time gone Qhatsandinople
Why did Qhatsandiople get the shakes?
That's nobody's business but the Snakes.

That's hysterical. I love it. I always think of the song when I am in Caravan and I hear the npc mention the name change. And it was technically Byzantium, then Constantinople, and then Istanbul (all based on who had control), but that would be history lesson.

You have enormous poetic talents! I'd even venture to say that they might be giants.
