My favorite things
Betcha can't read this darn thing without doing it to the tune.of Julie
Andrew's hit song "Favorite Things" from the Sound of Music. Here are the
new words to this tune:
Maalox and nose drops
and needles for knitting,
Walkers and handrails
and new dental fittings,
Bundles of magazines
tied up in string,
These are a few of
my favorite things.
Cadillacs and cataracts
and hearing aids and glasses,
Polident and Fixodent
and false teeth in glasses,
Pacemakers, golf carts,
and porches with swings,
These are a few of
my favorite things.
When the pipes leak,
When the bones creak,
When the knees go bad,
I simply remember
my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.
Hot tea and crumpets,
and corn pads for bunions,
No spicy hot food
or food cooked with onions,
Bathrobes and heat pads
and hot meals they bring,
These are a few of
my favorite things.
Back pains, confused brains,
and no fear of sinnin,
Thin bones and fractures
and hair that is thinin,
And we won't mention our
short shrunken frames,
When we remember
our favorite things.
When the joints ache,
when the hips break,
When the eyes grow dim,
Then I remember
the great life I've had,
And then I don't feel so bad.
