Happy To See Youse



I've got somethin' here in my suit
Don't tempt me or else it might shoot
Dis thing in my pocket
goes off like a rocket
and isn't a long yellow fruit


Girls, Guns and Gangsters (Edward L. Cahn, 1959)

  1. Say, babe, where'd ya get that beret?
    It makes you look like Claude Monet
    but I must admit
    he lacked your big tits
    and wasn't that good of a lay

  2. You hung out in Claude's lily pad
    imbibing vin rouge that was rad
    But Claude threw you out
    on hearing you shout,
    "Impressionist painting's a fad!"

  3. Impressionist paintings to me
    just bring out, in spades, the ennui
    Use bolder strokes, man!
    Suggest? Ha! Demand!
    Now, where's the free wine and the brie?

  4. Imagine you paint like Seurat
    You won't have a stroke, just a dot
    At canvas you stab
    small dab after dab
    Try counting those dots--there's a lot

  5. Like Pollack you could drip and drop
    or paint Brillo boxes, that's Pop!
    Toulouse painted whores,
    but talent like yours--
    the best I can say is to stop

  6. I've seen what you do with your pallet
    Your touch is as light as a mallet
    Your talent is thin
    and meant for the bin
    You don't send it in, you just mail it
