SAX AGE
The young black saxaphonist
has got her swinging so.
She's the ageing white woman
and he's her gigolo.
Lift that sax young-guy
and blow, blow, blow.
She's the ageing white woman
and he's her gigolo.
Black-and-white," hear her say,
"becomes a lady who's going grey."
A DIETRICH DITTY
Sell me a Shanghai Lil.
Sell me a Marlene.
Sell me a Blue Angel.
I'll buy a cool screen queen.
Yes sell me a Shanghai Lil.
Sell me a Marlene.
Sell me a Blue Angel.
I'll buy a hot heady dream.
I'LL-CALL-YOU-VERY-
CRUEL-DEVIL
I want one-hundred-and-one answers
in this questionnaire-to-fill.
You see black-spots where are white-spaces.
You try on various puppydog faces
but I'm not licked Cruella Deville.
I want one-hundred-and-one answers.
Girl, I am ever given nil.
There's many ways to skin a cat
who has nine lives in one. In fact
I'm not so cruel you devil.
THE-COCKNEY-AUNT'S-
PORK-PIE-HAT
I'd a Londoner-aunt through marriage,
born within the sound of Bow Bells.
That's how you tell a Cockney.
Yes that's how a Cockney you tell.
She'd ring out with loud laughter.
With loud laughter she'd ring out.
Hers was the sense of humour
that Tony Hancock's was all about.
