GUEST,DaveA Obit: Elizabeth Taylor has passed away (1932-2011) (44) RE: Obit: Liz Taylor has passed away (1932-2011) 23 Mar 11


The Mitchell Trio (the John Denver version) had a wickedly funny song about her on "That's the way it's gonna be" in 1966 entitled "What kind of life is that". Sample lyrics were:
Where ever she goes something thrilling occurs
She goes out to dine & the restaurant stirs
She's had 20 husbands, 5 of them hers
What kind of life is that?

and

Does she know what it means to make a pot roast last a week
To wrap a towel around a pipe in case it springs a leak
Does she know what it means to get down on her hands & knees
To wash her kids pyjamas or her old mans BVDs?
These simple pleasures don't delight her
She's too busy with La Dolce Vita!!

Very clever lyrics & still relevant after 45 years

Dave
