I tried searching the Forum but couldn't get the page to load. ZO, if anyone has chords and words to this song, I'd appreciate it. A friend has told me I need to do more happy songs, so ... what could be happier than a Big, Blue Frog -- and it even deals with prejudice, so I get to be socially active AND silly ... Thanks, WW |

Wow... the chords were still on the original note card written at Girl Scout camp sometime about 30 years ago. Hope they make sense. Chords are infront of the change word. |

28 Jan 11 - 08:59 AM (#3084001) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: I'm in Love with a Big, Blue Frog From: Charmion Guest "Bleau": If you look back at an earlier stanza, "His mother was a Phrog from Philadelphia, and his daddy's an enchanted prince," you'll get a hint. And then there's the PhD ... It's a reference to social rank -- have you ever heard of the Main Line in Philadelphia? It's a crack about how people who are bigoted about skin colour don't see anything else. |

28 Jan 11 - 12:48 PM (#3084139) Subject: RE: Lyr/Chords Req: I'm in Love with a Big, Blue Frog From: Bonnie Shaljean It's a fancied-up, affected way of spelling what is a perfectly clear, plain name. It's not good enough for these types to just be "frogs" (which is too common), no, they're "phrogs", m'dear. With a capital P at all times, no doubt. Rather like those with something to prove socially, who will never use a plain word when a multi-syllabled fancy one can be crammed in. The sort of folks who don't walk, they perambulate, who don't read, they "peruse" ... you get the idea... |
