And I’m going to revive my act exactly as I used to do it. Of course, some of the arrangements will have to be brought up-to-date. Music changes so much, doesn’t it?

Don’t you know who I am?  
Remember my name

You’ve been chosen as Sea Maids for your neatness, courtesy toward others, and, above all, your Southern grace. We enforce our dress code here, so keep your hair and nails trimmed. And, please, don’t alter your costumes. Once you’ve been fitted with your Sea World guide apparel, the shorts are short enough. Show any cheek and you’ll be back shovellin’ french fries.
