A Style of Dancing I Remember

Scarlett and Rhett decided to pet [Francine]

While Ilsa and Rick were watching a flick [N]

Butch and Sundance decided to dance [F]

And Amos and Andy both got very randy [Randy]

Then Lady and Tramp decided to vamp [F]

While Hardy and Laurel became quite immoral [Randy]

But Crosby and Hope just played rope-a-dope [Francine]

And Hepburn and Tracy both got very racy [Randy]

Abbot and Costello decided to bellow [Francine]

While Taylor and Burton had bods that were hurtin' [Randy]

Whereas Garbo and Gilbert just ate a filbert [F]

And Loy gave to Powell a doggy-style howl [Randy]

Said Bogey to Harris: "We'll always have Paris" [Beefy]

And to Ginger's despair, Fred cannot help but stare [anon]

Then Larry and Moe gave Curly a show [Beefy]

Once Sherman's wee body was squirmin' with Peabody [Kansas Sam]

I conclude it is plain these folks are insane [Beefy]

Moose and Squirrel agree, they are bonkers. [Dassn't Say]

If I had my way, I'd make them all pay [Beefy]

No such luck, so I'm stuck; what the heck [Kansas Sam]
