Good Evening.

LADY ON SKATES (on Viewing . Recent Cigarette Ad) She flies through the air. PtrouetteS and gyrates, The daring young blonde On her shining ice skates. She spins, then she glides, Bends at the knees. Leaps up on her toes With the greatest of ease. As the band marks time She's of like bird, Causing agile Astaire To ejaculate, my wordl" To see her negotiate Each intricate step, Makes others feel let down And devoid of all pep. So here's to the lady Who with the greatest of ease, Does circles round the man On the flying trapeze.
