Success of self named pens in Europe
Made the U.S. the next best niche
Marcel Bich dropped the H in his name
Afriad they would call it a *****
Michael Keaton was running wild
In the title role in Beetlejuice
If it was up to the writers
Sammy Davis Jr. would be let loose
Now they are called flight attendants
But about their name before the gripe
Stewardesses is the longest word
Only the left hand is needed to type
Davy Jones was a popular Monkee
As a matter of fact he was so showy
Another London singer named David Jones
Had to change his name to David Bowie
Director Wes Craven was bullied
In school before all of his fame
He named a villain after the kid
Freddy Krueger his infamous name
