Thank you for a wonderful walk down memory lane. Did you know there was a musical based on his lyrics that made the rounds a few years back? More of a musical revue but I enjoyed it.

to you all. And that is a great animation! 
cl zoomer, as regards that musical: do you mean 'Tomfoolery'? That show is mentioned towards the end of the Entry.

I hadn't noticed that mention, yes it is (and was) in fact *Tomfoolery*. One of those great productions you go to knowing you'll laugh even though you know every word. Also very difficult to explain to other people who haven't heard of Lehrer. 
Thank you again for an excellent entry.
