Manic Depressive Presents: Lobby Number, Pt. 1

Manic Depressive Pictures presents

Hello, Fresno, goodbye!

Produced by Are You Manic?

And directed by Depressive

Now you know the name of the picture and you'd like to see it, but no

Screenplay by Gluck from a stage play by Mutt

From a story by Blip, from a chapter by Runt

From a sentence by Dopes, from a comma by Stokes

From a idea by Brogues, based on a-Joe Miller's jokes

Now you know the name of the picture and who wrote it

And you'd still like to see it, but no

Art direction, finger pumpin', interiors, my nerve, but

Photography, Alonzo tech, recorded sound as needle back

Upholstery by Zachery, nick nackery by Thackery

To chickory by dickory and dickory for dock

Now, finally, finally, at last comes the picture

And what do we see?

The same ol' beautiful chorus girls

The opening scene is arranged in Fresno, California

So what are they singing?

When it's cherry blossom time in Orange, New Jersey

We'll make a feature, the pair

I know we can't elope, so, honey, do be mine

And if

Up from the gulch rides a hunk o' man

He is our hero, Cowvboy Dan

A gallopin', yodelin' buckaroo

His horse, of course, is a baritone too

I've got the ol' wagon wheels inside of me, heh, hoo!

I've got that ol' cactus in the hide of me, yoo, hoo, hoo!

Why, I've got that, yoo, hoo, hoo!

The girls are delighted to hear this

But where's our heroine? As the bell rings for lunch

We find our heroine in the corral eating her heart out

She is Mary Sue Ann, tap dancing daughter of an American juggling act

Who left her on the doorstep of an old English castle

Where she was harmed by Sir Basil Metabolism, who's head

By Jove, a girl baby, I shall raise her as me own daughter

Which he did, but she wants to tap dance, and Cowboy Dan

As you met on this trip, and it was love at first sight

Wants to marry her, so she can tap dance, but she knows Sir Basil

Will never permit this

Never, never, never!
