Subject: The Shah's Pants From: Hutzul Date: 22 Oct 99 - 08:38 PM The old Midnight Special radio program on WFMT in Chicago used to play a recording: The Prime Minister to Persia Was a gentleman of France Very much in love with the Shah's pants . . . It was more recitation than song, and very funny. Does anyone know who recorded it and if it's available? (I have all the words) Thanks - this site is the most fun. I've filled in tons of blank spots in my song book from all of you. |
Subject: RE: The Shah's Pants From: _gargoyle Date: 22 Oct 99 - 11:15 PM My mother was a woman .... that could spawn children ....only as peculiar as me.
When our family had dwindled to "less than full table" at November's Thanksgiving she searched the campus's for those who were able....to fill places....
One of them...from Iran/Persia told wonderful, fabulous stories....of days before "Shah" when his fathe and he owned seven villages....now reduced by law to three...(villagers... that wove carpets... for the cats to wipe mud on)....I wonder what became of SAM? |
Subject: RE: The Shah's Pants From: DonMeixner Date: 22 Oct 99 - 11:51 PM Hutzul, The prime minisrere to Persia was a gentleman from France, Pretty much in love with the Sha's pants, The ones he wore on grand state occasions when he sat upon the throne, And the minister often longed to have them for his very own. Is this one you are looking for? Its on a live Biff Rose recording which I have and I'll search it for you sometime on the week end. Don |

I went to join the cotton candy world and make me lots of money, On my own For Molly, ah, my pretty Molly, well, she's waiting all alone Someday soon I will return to her... still makes me sniffle sentimentally. Where did he come from, and whatever became of him? |
