| #13 Here you go 5089, a real slice of Americana, from MAD Sept. 1970, maybe even rich will like it. Ballad of a Boy Dawg Named Lassie Well, it started a guy named Eric Knight Who lost his life in an airplane flight, But before he cashed in, he wrote many a tome. Among them, "The Flying Yorkshireman" And "This Above All," but I'm no fan Of the book he went and called "Lassie Come Home!" Well, I wasn't born when the book came out, But the fame of the story spread about, So naturally it was bought up quick by Hollywood. They auditioned for the part of the female collie, Testing rincess, Girl and Dolly. And found out female dowgs don't train so good! So they went for a male - my Great Grand-Dad (Who'd hoped for the role of Torhune's "lad" In a movie with stars like the like of Raymond Massey! But instead he was teamed with Roddy McDowall In a part that made Grand-Paw bark, "foul!" When he learned his movie name'd been changed to Lassie. Well, everyone thought the film was classy, So they followed it up with "Son of Lassie", Then "Courage of Lassie" from the same old recipe. Though the dawg in the last one's name was "Bill", The title wasn't, so people still Believed my Great-Grandaddy was a she! This doggy bd spread to radio Which was followed (as if you didn't know) By an endless stream of episodes on TV! And whenever one "Lassie" got too old, A new replacement came in from the fold, Until the name was handed down to me! What annoys me more than a pesky flea Is the fact that Lassie has proved to be A goldmine of products and things to make them rich! But despite it all, I'am in a rut Trying to prove to every mutt That I'm not a daughter, but a dog-gone son-of-a BLEEP! Oh, how I'd love to put the bite On that casting clod who caused my plight! To give a guy a girl-dog's tag is brassy! I'd tear him to pieces for his folly, And then I'd find me a real girl collie, And we'd have a son and name him..... Snoppy, or Rin-Tin-Tin or Gentle Ben, or Flipper Anything but Lassie! |
