A few more I thought of after the one below, but wanted to look up before posting: The air is French, This chair is French, This most sincere Sancerre is French, The skies are French, These pies are French, Those guys are French, THESE FRIES ARE FRENCH!!! --David Yazbek, "Here I Am" from Dirty Rotten Scoundrels All hail to Little Me, The book that's bound to be Prohibited from passage through the mail, But nonetheless on sale throughout the land, And printed by demand In Esperanto, Japanese, and Braille! With the areas I'll expose I'll annihilate Gypsy Rose, And for practically Proustian prose, Mary Astor--meet your master! Stack me up with all three Gabors, I'll reduce 'em to cut-rate stores! And Louella, dear, you'll get yours With the end-all, Casey Stendhal truth! --Carolyn Leigh, "The Truth," from Little Me I've made a haul in all the leading rackets, From which rip-roaring rich I happen to be, So if thou wouldst attain the upper brackets Marry me! Marry me! Marry me! My purse has yet to know a silver lining, Still lifeless is my wifeless family tree, But if for love that's endless thou art pining, Marry me! Marry me! Marry me! I come to thee a thoroughbred patrician, Still spraying my decaying family tree. To give a social goose to thy position, Marry me! Marry me! Marry me! --Cole Porter, "Tom, Dick, or Harry," from Kiss Me, Kate Better not even get me started on Sondheim! |
