Oscar Medleys - 1991
Like Billy Crystal's Oscar Medley's? Wondering what the lyrics were? Here ya' go:
SPECIAL THANKS TO John McSweeney FOR TRANSPOSING THESE!!!
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (to the tune of "Theme from The Patty Duke Show")
Here's a beauty whose read most everything
From Julia Philips to Stephen King
A beast who used to be a prince
His hair could use a comb and rinse
What a crazy pair
But they're paintings
Just moveable paintings from Disney's Mob
The act like us, they walk like us
Sometimes they even talk like us
It could make you sob
Coz us actors - are out of a job
The Silence of the Lambs (tune unidentified)
The silence of the lambs when they are gone
A boulebiase of cheeks and necks and arms
Look inside my pot - Clarice - and see
A guy who looks a lot like Chef Boyardie
Bugsy (to the tune of "Toot-Toot-Tootsie")
Bug Bug Bugsy goodbye
Bug Bug Bugsy don't cry
There biggest scam wasn't pretty
Don't feel so bad, it could have been Atlantic City
Bug Bug Bugsy
(spoken) Hey don't call me Bugsy,
You can call me Benjamin
You can call me Mr. Siegal
You can call me a cab
But you doesn't have to call me Bugsy - I'll kill you
Bug Bug Bugsy don't cry
Ten nominations are high
JFK (to the tune of "Three Coins in the Fountain")
Three shots in the Plaza
Who done it Mr. Stone?
The CIA or Homer Simpson?
The FBI or Vic Damone?
Just who were the Villians?
The Mafia or PTA?
Connie Chung or Connie Francis?
Everyone's in JFK
Mel Torme, Doris Day, JFK
The Prince of Tides (to the tune of "Don't Rain on my Parade")
Don't tell me not to make this film I've got to
If someone makes a flop its me and not you
I've simply got to make the film The Prince of Tides
I'll bring this book to the screen
Guess who will play Lowenstein
I'll tell Nick Nolte 'Stand There!'
Tight on my legs, nails and hair
Seven nominations on the shelf
Did this film direct itself?
Hey Mr. Oscar here I am
(to the tune of "New York, New York")
This little gold guy
Is going away
Will it be Silence of the Lambs or JFK?
Or Bugsy, Prince of Tides?
That goo goo Beast and Bride?
The votes are in, it's oscar day
