Happy To See Youse



I've got somethin' here in my suit
Don't tempt me or else it might shoot
Dis thing in my pocket
goes off like a rocket
and isn't a long yellow fruit


Girls, Guns and Gangsters (Edward L. Cahn, 1959)

Say, babe, where'd ya get that beret?
It makes you look like Claude Monet
but I must admit
he lacked your big tits
and wasn't that good of a lay

You hung out in Claude's lily pad
imbibing vin rouge that was rad
But Claude threw you out
on hearing you shout,
"Impressionist painting's a fad!"

Norm Knott said...

Impressionist paintings to me
just bring out, in spades, the ennui
Use bolder strokes, man!
Suggest? Ha! Demand!
Now, where's the free wine and the brie?

surly hack said...

Imagine you paint like Seurat
You won't have a stroke, just a dot
At canvas you stab
small dab after dab
Try counting those dots--there's a lot

Like Pollack you could drip and drop
or paint Brillo boxes, that's Pop!
Toulouse painted whores,
but talent like yours--
the best I can say is to stop

I've seen what you do with your pallet
Your touch is as light as a mallet
Your talent is thin
and meant for the bin
You don't send it in, you just mail it
