This is my college friend, Dunc.
He’s something of an academic monk.
His musings are numerous
And often quite humorous
In this picture, no one is drunk.
This is my college friend, Dunc.
He’s something of an academic monk.
His musings are numerous
And often quite humorous
In this picture, no one is drunk.
If it was possible to cancel, he did.
If a pretty girl walked by, he hid.
There’s not so much resistance
When the world is at a distance.
Deeper into his computer he slid.

A tuna fish married a horse
They served seaweed and rolled oats of course
‘til that drunken bride filly
Drained the pond (“To be silly!”)
Ending in a slippery and messy divorce.

I’m knocking on Hollywood’s backdoor
Hanging ‘round craft like a goddamned snack whore
Filling hours of void
With sneak peeks at my Droid
‘Tis the life of an expiring actor.

(Here he is about to sing Anatevka.)
When Stallone was younger and lid’ler
He starred in a production of Fiddler
He couldn’t really sing
But there was a wind ‘neath his wing
In a sassy young jew named Bette Midler

When it feels like your life’s in the can
“What, I’m aging?! Gee thanks, Peter Pan.”
Stop asking “God, why?”
Puff your chest up real high
And cry, “I’m a little sunshine man!”

Farther westward the caravan goes
Carrying Jim, Ma, Pa, and Sharon’s Rose
Simple folk seek no fame
Just fortune’s fair claim
And wine grapes to squeeze through their toes

It isn’t the “can’ts” and the “maybes”
It’s the “sures!” that seem to get rabies
Yes, cancel if you must
But now my whole night’s a bust
Why is pouting only OK for babies?

“Boys, could you be any sweeter?!
But my checkbook does totter and teeter
I know you planned on me buyin’ -
Oh, darlins please don’t start cryin’!”
“But now we don’t have no money eeder!”
I admit - I don’t know about sports
Spare me your incredulous snorts
I don’t care, I don’t care
I can’t make myself care
Now excuse me while I eat chocolate tortes

Meow-scuse me? Don’t pick me up! Ouch!
I’m freaked out, you crazy old grouch.
‘cause there’s a moth on the floor
And a dog fight next door
Now, if you need me, I’ll be inside the couch.

The lemons are ripe for the pickens
The elderly are surgical spring chickens
But I sure do miss
The smells of bagels and piss
And friends, funnier than the dickens
An old man lay dying in Slovenia
He was rich, but bug-eyed and mean, yah.
“I vill leave to you son
ze house, pool, ze gun
And zis bout of hereditary scitzophrenia!”

Some mornings I wake in a panic:
Happy then sad—guess I’m manic.
But I’ll settle my mood
After good breakfast food
With eggs that are vaguely Hispanic.

That Michael Kayne is really a stitch!
And he could sing his way out of a ditch
He founded Harry and Conrad,
A most foul-mouthed new dad
How I miss that son of a bitch.
