Will try to bring it to work tomorrow and transcribe the lyrics, assuming my laptop really does turn out to have a DVD drive as our IT guy claims...otherwise it will be somewhat longer. The song I most love from that production is "I'm So Alone." |

They're the same, but this time I included the copyright info and used a "Lyr Add" heading.) previous posting deleted - joecloneWE'RE DESPICABLE from Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol Music by Jule Styne; lyrics by Bob Merrill We're (pause) des-(pause)-picable We make ourselves (pause) plain sick-able Berate ourselves, hate ourselves viciously Still none of us wishes he (pause) could change. We're slick (pause) and (pause) shifty birds With fingers quick (pause) as fifty birds. While stealing your purse or your ticky-tock Just for a kick we knock (pause) you flat. La, la, la-la-la-la-la. La, la, la-la-la-la-la. La, la, la-la-la-la-la. We're just blankety-blank-blank (pause) no good! We're not (pause) tea-(pause)-party blokes No chitty-chat (pause) and arty-chokes We're twice as blood-thirsty as cannibules And wilder than animules (pause) are we. We're rep-(pause)-re-(pause)-hensible We'll steal your pen (pause) and pencible. We'll sneer at you, leer at you naughtily And really we ought to be (pause) in jail. La, la, la-la-la-la-la.
