I first wrote about this song in a fanzine of mine way back in 1984, when the irascible (first time I use this word) Donald Duck turned 50. So I thought a little reprise would be in order now...

http://www.televisiontunes.com/Donald_Duck.html

Who’s got the sweetest disposition?
One guess, that’s who?
Who’d never, ever start an argument?
Who never shows a bit of temperament?
Who's never wrong but always right?
Who'd never dream of starting a fight?
Who get stuck with all the bad luck?
No one but Donald Duck!

Our band had a reggae song I wrote called "Ducks Pump Gas" which was a protest song about the Exxon Valdez oil spill. At least that's what I kept telling people.
We used a quacking duck on the recording and live as well. It was quite fun and had great guitar solo by our lead player.
It was no "Constipated Duck" however!

Well, "rap" is the Danish word for "quack", so that shouldn't be too difficult! :)

Per Google translator:
"quack" in Danish is "kvaksalver"

Those ducks must get sore throats saying that.

Donald "Duck" Dunn is a fine bassist.
