The inevitable Stephen Sondheim hijack

- 

Mmm, heavenly. Not as hearty as bishop, perhaps, but then not as bland as curate, either.

Mrs. Lovett: And good for business–always leaves you wanting more. Trouble is, we only get it on Sundays.  
Mrs Lovett: (continues) Lawyer’s rather nice.

Sweeney: If it’s for a price.

Mrs Lovett: Order something else though, to follow,  
Since no one should swallow it twice.

Sweeney: Have you any dean?

Mrs Lovett: No but if you’re British and loyal you might enjoy Royal Marine.

Anyway it’s clean.

Though, of course, it tastes of wherever it’s been.

Try the Friar,  
Fried, it’s drier

Sweeney: No the clergy is really  
too coarse and too mealy.  
I’ll come again when you  
have judge on the menu  
\*

Thus endth the inevitable Sondheim hijack

Fenris Todd, the Demon Poster of SDMB.

- Yes, I know the lyrics are out of order, but I could only get so much in under “fair use” rules.

There’s a difference? They taste all the same to me. Last one I had was lean and stringy, not much meat on him! _sigh_ Need to fatten 'em up for the next sacrifice!

Well I’m glad you acknowledged the fact that you butchered the lyrics.

“Try actor, that’s compactor.”

“Yes - and always arrives _overdone_!”

It was said about Ira Glass, now I’ll borrow it for **Fenris**.

He’s Gay. He’s just not _homosexual_.

Thread from the dead!

Still, it was nice to read it again…until I saw that **seethruart** ’s webpage is gone! Just the other day I was thinking about how much fun it was to watch people “debate” and berate him. Now I’m going to go back and read his threads, but it just won’t be as much fun without the visual aids. ☹

Naw, this pony has been beaten too severely _post mortem_ to be tasty.
