OVERHEARD AT SAUNDERS' WELCOME HOME PARTY
Clancy, the man with the wide-banded hat, hasn’t a brain in his head
And shows it every damn time that he speaks
Marlo, the gal with the fetching fur stole, won’t give him the time of day
For she not-so-secretly pines for Hal
He of the sharp double-breasted suit and the unfiltered cigarette
Too bad for her that he’s in madly in love with Art
The jet-setter just back from Lisbon or Rome with little gifts for all the friends
And too bad for Rita, who lusts after Marlo
And apparently hides her frustration under god-awful dresses
I mean, really, a shoulder flap?
Says Saunders, and lights another, concluding his diatribe with
A sigh and I need a new set of friends
---But who has that kind of time?

This one and the Ape adventure tie for favorite for BDP... although I really did like the pickle girl. Patrick and I sang it as a bar diddy.
This one and the Pickle Hat are actually mine, - but Strange Adventures is definitely a BDP highlight.
