I've interviewed Leslie Howard,
I've interviewed Noel Coward,
I've interviewed the great Stravinsky,
but my greatest achievement
is the interview I had with the star
who worked for Mr. Minsky.
Let me tell you this long story here.
I met her at the Yankee Clipper,
and she didn't unzip one zipper.
I said, Miss Lee,
you are such an artist.
Tell me, honey, why you never miss?
And what do you think of while you work?
And she said, well, while I work,
my thoughts go, well,
go something kind of like this.
Zip, Walter Lippman was
n't brilliant today
Zip, will Soraya ever
write a great play?
Zip, I was reading
Schopenhauer last night
Zip, and you know honey,
I think that child Schopenhauer was right
I don't want a caesarean,
I don't want to meet Covina
Zip
Darling, I'm an intellectual,
I don't like a decontraltor
Or a man whose voice is alto zip
I'm a, there's a big word there, zip
It took intellect to master my art
And zip, now, who the hell is Margie Hart?
Is me around?
Well, darl, Marge, move it over, kid
