Thomas Andrew Lehrer

“ Oh, what we really need in the Senate
Is a fellow who can sing and dance.
We can't expect America to win against its foes
With no one in the Senate who can really tap his toes
Each time that we convene
I can do a new routine
Like the one where I'm a clown in baggy pants. ”

“ I'll win each voter's heart --- now is that idea so crazy?
Remember how I won Ann Sothern's heart in "Up Goes Maisie"?
You'll just have to admit that I'm the best man for the job
If you ever saw me in "A Girl, A Guy, and A Gob". ”
