These words fit the music from "Three Little Maids" from the Mikado By Gilbert and Sullivan in the video clip below.If you play the video clip you can follow these words at the same time.
Three little paper cut-outs are we
Cool continental chaps we be
Avant garde hip bohemian twee
Three little males play boules
Vincent's brain swirls round in rum
Claude's quiet gentle paints for fun
Pablo's pushy outrageous and numb
Three little males play boules
CHORUS
Three famous painters came together
Arranged in plastic foliage paper
Standing upright on Rall's fine table
Three little males play boules
Three little males play boules
Vincent cut his ear in a rage thump thump
Claude painted flowers and fruit yum yum
Pablo was vain and a brute rump pump
Three little males play boules
Vincent paints red and yellow displays
Claude built a bridge in green and grey
Pablo loved bulls tortured Dora all day
Three little males play boules
Three little males play boules
CHORUS
Three famous painters came together
Arranged in plastic foliage paper
Standing upright on Rall's fine table
Three little males play boules
Three little males play boules
Three little paper cut-outs are we
Cool continental chaps we be
Avant garde hip bohemian twee
Three little males play boules
Vincent's brain swirls round in rum
Claude's quiet gentle paints for fun
Pablo's pushy outrageous and numb
Three little males play boules
CHORUS
Three famous painters came together
Arranged in plastic foliage paper
Standing upright on Rall's fine table
Three little males play boules
Three little males play boules
Vincent cut his ear in a rage thump thump
Claude painted flowers and fruit yum yum
Pablo was vain and a brute rump pump
Three little males play boules
Vincent paints red and yellow displays
Claude built a bridge in green and grey
Pablo loved bulls tortured Dora all day
Three little males play boules
Three little males play boules
CHORUS
Three famous painters came together
Arranged in plastic foliage paper
Standing upright on Rall's fine table
Three little males play boules
Three little males play boules
Tell me we don't have to write new song lyrics or do paper crafting, Rall?! Très intelligent, très amusant, comme d'habitude!
ReplyDeleteLove this!
ReplyDelete¡híjole! la culpa la tienes tú
ReplyDeleteWow! I don't know any Spanish, so you have only yoursef to blame for what I will write! It's just as well I have until next Wednesday to come up with something.
What a wonderful imagination you have, Rallentenda.
Hasta la vista amigos!
ReplyDeleteThree little words to describe this: 'just such fun!'
ReplyDeleteAww thanks Stanski!
ReplyDeleteThis poem really gave me a smile this morning.
ReplyDeletePleased to hear that Mary!

ReplyDeleteIt also had me smiling.

Thank you Rall. I've often thought it would be fun to sit down and have a conversation with a group of poets from the past, but stopped that when I saw Emily walk in to be greeted by Alan. Couldn't do that to the poor soul, his or hers. This, your poem, was so much more fun, lol.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth
Thanks Elizabeth.It is a pity you were not around for our Bukowski meets Shakespeare poem a while ago. You would have liked that one!
ReplyDeleteFor anyone who does not recognise the three paper cutout visual artists who live on my table
They are:
Vincent van Gogh
Pablo Picasso
Claude Monet
You are too silly and fun!
ReplyDelete(It amazes me how last year at this time you didn't even know how to go about making a blog, and now you are a pro at it...how great is that?)
I have a technical support team in Scotland who do this stuff for me when they are not flamenco and tango dancing
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, Rall, this is RICH! I love it! You had me laughing out loud--and the paper dudes are way cool.
ReplyDeleteI learn more about your creativity. Thank you for taking the time to do something so fun. You surprised me with this one, and impressed me, too. Bravo!

I bought these figures at an art exhibition at the National Gallery a few months ago Brenda.
ReplyDeletefun is the theme for this month.
Imagine. A table topper of three dudes doing their thing - how chic is THAT? Terrific fun!
