Me too, TB, Jammin and me seem to have missed out on the WHY for the crutches and all.
At least THE MOUSE wasn't to blame

I'm a HUGE MM fan.

durinsbane2244 · 08-13-2006, 02:14 PM

i need a pick-me-up...feeling like dying lately...

jammi567 · 08-13-2006, 03:30 PM

why's that?

trolls' bane · 08-13-2006, 04:50 PM

Well...to be more specific, the cast was for her foot, which was broken in three places after she slipped and fell in the hotel bathroom.

Oh, come on. What could be that awful that you'd feel like dying? Now, I must admit, that I have some pretty rough luck. Which certainly proves that all is for the best in this best of all possible worlds.

(He sings)
Look at this view! Mountains and towers!
Green meadows, too, bursting with flowers!
This is the heart of the [this] best of all possible worlds.
Much the best part of this best of all possible worlds.

CHORUS (sings).
Yes, it's the heart of the best of all possible worlds.
Much [Quite] the best part of the best of all possible worlds.

PANGLOSS (sings, gesturing toward the Chorus).
Our men are lean, handsome and active.
Where have you seen girls more attractive?
None have more grace in this best of all possible worlds.
No finer race in this best of all possible worlds.

CHORUS.
No finer race in this best of all possible worlds.
No better place in this best of all possible worlds.

PANGLOSS.
And best of all, we now convene
With keen anticipation,
To watch a happy wedding scene
And have a celebration.

CHORUS.
A happy celebration.

PANGLOSS.
All hail the groom
And bride, of whom
Our hearts could not be fonder.
The love that reigns in Heaven above
Is mirrored in the marriage of
(Candide and Cunegonde enter. Pangloss continues singing)
Candide and Cunegonde!

CHORUS.
Candide and Cunegonde!

PANGLOSS.
Wherefore and hence, therefore and ergo...

CHORUS.
Wherefore and hence, therefore and ergo...

PANGLOSS.
All's for the best in this best of all possible worlds.

CHORUS.
All's for the best in this best of all possible worlds.

PANGLOSS.
Any questions?
Ask without fear.
(Touches his head)
I've all the answers here.

CUNEGONDE sings).
Dear master, I am sure you're right
That married life is splendid.
But why do married people fight?
I cannot comprehend it.

CHORUS.
She cannot comprehend it.

PANGLOSS.
The private strife
Of man and wife
Is useful to the nation:
It is a harmless outlet for
Emotions which [that] could lead to war
Or social agitation.

CHORUS.
A brilliant explanation!

PANGLOSS.
Therefore, it's true.
No one [man] may doubt it:

CHORUS.
Therefore, it's true.
No doubt about it:

PANGLOSS.
Marriage is blest in
This best of all possible worlds.

CHORUS.
All's for the best in
This best of all possible worlds.

PANGLOSS.
Next question?
Deep though it be,
There's none too deep for me!

CANDIDE (sings).
Since marriage is divine, of course,
We cannot understand, sir,
Why should there [there should] be so much divorce.
Do let us know the answer.

CHORUS.
Do let us know the answer.

PANGLOSS.
Why, marriage, boy,
Is such a joy,
So lovely a condition,
That many ask no better than
To wed as often as they can,
In happy repetition.

CHORUS and CUNEGONDE.
A brilliant exposition.

PANGLOSS, CANDIDE, CUNEGONDE.
Wherefore and hence, therefore and ergo...

CHORUS.
Wherefore and hence, therefore and ergo...

PANGLOSS, CANDIDE, CUNEGONDE (sing).
All's for the best in this best of all possible worlds.

CHORUS.
All's for the best in this best of all possible worlds.

PANGLOSS, CANDIDE, CUNEGONDE (sing in a round, twice).
A brilliant exposition!
Q. E. D.
All's for the best.

ALL.
A brilliant exposition in this best of all
Possible, possible, possible, possible [omits the last] worlds!
A brilliant exposition! Q. E. D.

Good to see ya back TB!

How come ya mum came back on crutches and a lawyer's number???

best, BB

trolls' bane · 08-13-2006, 05:25 PM

(See post higher up...) Aha! See? Light dawns on Marblehead. Yes, I've got hold of some Boston slang. So, I'm drivin' down the breakdown lane now!

I bought a pack of cards from Planet Hollywood for my friend Carla's birthday, but I have to admit...

She gets too hungry, for dinner at eight
She likes the theater, and never comes late
She'd never bother, with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp

Doesn't like crap games, with barons or earls
Won't go to Harlem, in ermine and pearls
Won't dish the dirt, with the rest of the girls
That's why the lady is a tramp

She likes the free, free fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke, but it's o'k
She hates California, it's cold and it's damp
That's why the lady is a tramp

She gets far too hungry, to eat for dinner at eight
She adores the theater, and she doesn't arrives late
She'd never bother, with people she'd hate
That's why the lady is a tramp

Won't have a dice game, with any barons or earls
She will never go to Harlem, dessed in ermine and pearls
And she won't dish the dirt, with all the other girls
That is why the lady is a tramp

She loves the free, free, fresh wind in her hair
Life without care
She's broke
Hates California, 'cause it's so cold and so damp
That's why the lady
That's why the lady
That's why the lady is a tramp

Well, this calls for a story...

(A boy went back to Napoli because he missed the scenery)
(The native dances and the charming songs)
(But wait a minute something's wrong)
('cause now it's)
Hey mambo, mambo Italiano hey hey mambo mambo Italiano
Go go go you mixed up Siciliano
All you Calabrese do the mambo like-a crazy with the
Hey mabo don't wanna tarantella
Hey mambo no more mozzarella
Hey mambo mambo Italiano try an enchilada with a fish baccala
Hey goomba I love how you dance the rumba
But take some advice paisano learn-a how to mambo
If you're gonna be a square you ain't-a gonna go nowhere
Hey mambo mambo Italiano hey hey mambo mambo Italiano
Go go Joe shake like a tiavanna
E lo che se dice you get happy in the feetza when you
Mambo Italiano

Hey chatrul you don't-a have to go to the school
Just to make it with a big bambino
It's like vino
Kid you good-a looking but you don't-a know what's cooking 'til you
Hey mambo mambo Italiano
Hey hey mambo mambo Italiano
Ho ho ho you mixed up Siciliano
E lo che se diche you get happy in the feetza when you
Mambo Italiano
