Another Hollywood Set
Another Hollywood Set
What I know about England is notoriety
So you must be member of some society
And list of them was trying to compile
For women was biscuit and men sun dial.
How about lunch of biscuits in a basket
Have hour glass and be sure to ask it
And now wonderful self do grab hold
There have one for fortunes to be told.
Vibrant England even has a vestry board
Dukes, duchesses and looks like a Lord
Had heard about a nice, neat little boy
Who they liked to call Lord Fondleroy.
Who would want to fondle Roy anyway?
See him ride off on horse and hear say
Due to many difficulties and deep regret
They went and killed my favorite pet.
A fine, passing fancy it just became
My horse is a man and not a dame
And to heaven horses they never let
Saved cadaver for another Hollywood set.
