Aw, c'mon; you can say it. Around these parts some say "Varnish". I like your "Vanish" better, though; then you could call the tune "The Mohel"

. But I call it "The Spanish Misfortune"; got that from a kid who misheard me. I like it; it sounds like a venereal pox. Then there's "The Chinese Chickens", which was an actual mishearing on my own part

.
At a session I once launched into what I announced as "Montezuma's Revenge". "Montezuma's Revenge?" they cried; "But that's The Stool of Repentance!" "Think about it," said I.
I love mangled tune names; I've probably got a million of 'em. I will be eternally grateful to the green young fellow who pronounced "The Kesh" as "The Quiche".
"The Flying Toad"? I'm drawing a blank.
Quiche, lol. My church music director persisted in saying " Kish."
I love the Montezuma's Revenge, lol.

FWIW, I read you loud and clear...
(Though it may be due to the fact that I sometimes pronounce that word that way for funsies.)
