Laughing in the playground – gets no kicks from little boys: She’d rather make it with a letching grey. Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung, who watches through the railings as they play. Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along. She’s a poor man’s rich girl and she’ll do it for a song. She’s a rich man stealer but her favour’s good and strong: She’s the Robin Hood of Highgate – helps the poor man get along. ---

> [@Jeff Olsen](#): > > Five foot two, eyes of blue, > oh, what those five feet could do: > has anybody seen my gal? > > (now if **John Carter** could post the Allan Sherman version :D) Of course: By special request of **Jeff Olsen** , here’s the song Dejah Thoris and I danced to at our wedding: (Excerpts only, due to copyright laws) Last night I met a man from Mars, and he was very sad. He said, “Won’t you help me find my girl friend, please?” So I asked him, “What does she look like?”, And the man from Mars said, she’s Eight foot two, solid blue, Five transistors in each shoe, Has anybody seen my gal? Lucite nose, rust-proof toes, And when her antenna glows, She’s the cutest Martian gal. Her steering wheel has sex appeal, Her evening gown is stainless steel, Has anybody seen my gal? If she’s found, rush like mad, Put her on a launching pad, Down at Cape Canaveral, And shoot me back my cutie, My supersonic beauty, Send me back my Martian gal. Hold applause, please and send money! ---

She’s got a heart that’s cold as ice, you cross her once, you won’t cross her twice. There’s no talkin’ once her mind is made, it’s like steppin’ on a hand grenade! _Mean Woman Blues_ Barry Goodreau (yes, the guy from _Boston_) ---

I want a girl with a mind like a diamond I want a girl who knows what’s best I want a girl with shoes that cut And eyes that burn like cigarettes I want a girl with the right allocations Who’s fast, thorough, and sharp as a tack She’s playing with her jewelry She’s putting up her hair She’s touring the facilities And picking up the slack I want a girl with a short skirt and a long jacket. ---
