Lost Idol

Your grandma's feeling sad today. You may have seen her cry. Someone is gone forever Whom she'd hoped would never die. She's remembering the long ago When she was just a girl And his piercing blue eyes from the screen Could set her heart awhirl. He is gone with all the others Who had played important part In her dreams and silly fancies, Before Grandpa had her heart. Richard, Ronald and Gregory, David and Rock, Jimmy and John, Henry and Frank and Montgomery All of her idols are gone. Each has taken a little piece Of a sweet and carefree time When these heroes of the silver screen Were hers for just a dime. She's crying for her favorite, Paul And just a little for her self As she plucks the salad dressing Bearing his face, from off the shelf. No. 1 in contest
