LINER NOTES:
E–tuned in the Letter “Stamped”
by Franklyn Pearse O’Wryly, S.J., author of One Squared and Oh! the Juniper!

Sir Dance–a–lot Dink and the knights of turn-table/they tried to monkey me into rioting this fable/about a lawn donkey and his piece of grass, Mabel/who never seemed to cough without her legs crossed. | Well Cecil Taylor made a call to Mister Jelly Roll/Asked him, “Pardon me, Jelly, I’m taking a poll—/Have you ever heard Dick Hyman at Shelley’s Manne–Hole?/It left my ears with their eyes crossed!” | Well–water on my windshield means I’m driving low/like Joe Dimaggio on Marylin’s Monmole/He swings his bat sweeter than Toblerone/in the on–deck circle with his dress crossed. | Don’t look now, Randy Johnson’s on the mound/He’s chewing tobacco; his thoughts are profound/He’s thinking ’bout that catcher in a spitball gown/He’s stirring up the batter’s box and chowin’ down/He chokes just like the chicken who never makes a sound/The third base coach’s signals crossed. | The threepenny jockey rides a two bit quarter horse/and pays with green stamps for tea at the golf course/I think he’s a cheap little bastard. | If you see Bell Pepa, tell her I was polite/I cooked you like a packet of “Vegetable Delight”/I told the sub–committee I was pulling up your tights/They asked me if your buns were hot–crossed.

Let me flick it kneestyle: uh–uh. Flannel! Panel! I got more cocker than a spaniel!

Now OB1KNO–B said to C3PO, “You’re just another number as far as I know.”/“You R2 detailed!” cried Pablo Picasso, “And you’re too square to ever be a cubist!” | Jeff Mellin called to tell me he’s gonna save the world/I said, “Great, Jeffrey, who’s gonna play the girl?”/He said, “Maybe Kate Winslet, maybe Milton Berle; The needle needs a record to get its point across.” | Well pardon me, Producer, I think I might be sick/Your entire wall of sound is made from just one brick/You last about as long as a Nestlé’s Quik/when that bunny comes around. | Well me and the midget, we don’t see eye to eye/His hat it adds a gallon to his pint of size/Sometimes if you poke him in the belly he cries: “Have you ever had to pay to watch Lacrosse?”

Flannel, funnel, build me a tunnel!
