The
subversive songs of Tom Lehrer, the sardonic piano-wielding fugitive from Harvard, have
corrupted generations of Americans since he first began recording and performing in the
1950s. His uniquely depraved wit has been forced again on an unsuspecting public' via
Tomfoolery, the stage revue based on his ever-trenchant observation of the American scene.
This new songbook, with old favorites unavailable for years as well as never-published
songs, is the most comprehensive ever assembled. It contains the words, tunes, piano
accompaniments, and guitar chords for thirty-four classics. |
