Too Many Songs by Tom Lehrer with Not Enough Drawings by Ronald Searle
The subversive songs of Tom Lehrer, the sardonic piano-wielding fugitive from Harvard, have corrupted generations of Americans since he first began recording and performing in the 1950s. His uniquely depraved wit has been forced again on an unsuspecting public' via Tomfoolery, the stage revue based on his ever-trenchant observation of the American scene. This new songbook, with old favorites unavailable for years as well as never-published songs, is the most comprehensive ever assembled. It contains the words, tunes, piano accompaniments, and guitar chords for these thirty-four classics:The Irish BalladFight Fiercely, Harvard!Be PreparedThe Old Dope PeddlerThe Wild West Is Where IWant to BeI Wanna Go Back to DixieLobachevskyThe Hunting SongI Hold Your Hand in MineMy Home TownL-YWhen You Are Old and GrayThe Wiener Schnitzel WaltzPoisoning Pigeons in the ParkA Christmas CarolBright College DaysIn Old MexicoShe's My GirlThe ElementsThe Masochism TangoNational Brotherhood WeekMLF LullabyThe Folk Song ArmySmutSend the MarinesNew MathPollutionSo Long, MomWho's Next?Wemher Von BraunWe Will All Go TogetherWhen We GoI Got It from AgnesSilent EThe Vatican Rag
