If you ever lose your teeth when you're out to dine, You kin borrow mine-it's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. When other friendships have been forgot, ours will still be hot- a razzle dazzle dazzle tweet tweet tweet. etc. |

21 Sep 03 - 02:09 PM (#1022548) Subject: Lyr Add: FRIENDSHIP (from Homer & Jethro) From: Jim Dixon FRIENDSHIP Words and music by Cole Porter. Introduced by Ethel Merman and Bert Lahr in the Broadway musical "DuBarry was a Lady," 1939. Sung by Red Skelton, Gene Kelly, and Charles Walters in the 1943 film version. Also recorded by: Kay Kyser and His Orchestra; The Pied Pipers with Tommy Dorsey & His Orchestra; Judy Garland and Johnny Mercer (1940); Ray Charles and Ricky Skaggs (1984); Ann Hampton Callaway and Liz Callaway (1996). I refreshed this thread mainly because I wanted to post the version done by Homer & Jethro. This is one song that they didn't have to turn into a parody--it was funny enough to begin with. All they did was add spoken patter, which I have inserted in blue. In each verse, Homer sings, and Jethro speaks a reply, and sometimes there is an additional spoken reply by Homer indicated by "--". They both sing the chorus. If you're ever in a jam, here I am. Oh, thank you, Homer, boy. If you're ever in a mess, S-O-S. That spells "sozz," don't it? --Yep. If you ever feel so happy, you land in jail, I'm your bail. CHORUS: It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. When other friendships have been forgot, Ours will still be hot. Lah-dle-ah-dle-ah-dle dig, dig, dig. If you're ever up a tree, just phone me. I'll call you collect. If you're ever down a well, ring my bell. I'll wring your neck. --I wish you wouldn't. If you ever lose your teeth, and you're out to dine, borrow mine. All right. CHORUS: It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. When other friendships have been forgate, Ours will still be great. Lah-dle-ah-dle-ah-dle, chuck, chuck, chuck. If they ever black your eyes, put me wise. Oh, I'll do it. I'll be the first to do it. If they ever cook your goose, turn me loose. I'll be glad to get rid of him. If they ever put a bullet through your brain, I'll complain. CHORUS: It's friendship, friendship, just a perfect blendship. When other friendships have been forgit, Ours will still be it. Lah-dle-ah-dle-ah-dle, hep, hep, hep. |

I don't remember the exact title of the album. Also included were "three Little Fishies", "The Music Goes Round and Round", and other classics, all done more or less seriously. It deserves to be reissued. |
