lirik lagu ogden nash - the outcome
when thanksgiving comes twice, who walks proud
as that grateful optimist mr. mccloud?
things you and i would greatly deplore
mccloud found ways to be grateful for
this was his conscientious attitude:
double thanksgiving, double gratitude
whatever happened no matter how hateful
mccloud found excuses for being grateful
to be grateful, he really strained his wits
had he hiccups, he was grateful it wasn’t the fits
had he hives, he was grateful it wasn’t the measles
had he mice, hе was grateful it wasn’t weasels
had hе roaches, he was grateful it wasn’t tarantulas
did his wife go to san francisco?
he was glad it wasn’t los angeles
mrs. mccloud, on the other hand
was always complaining to beat the band
if she had the mumps, she found it no tonic
to be told to be grateful it wasn’t bubonic
if the cook walked out, she would scream like a mink
instead of being grateful she still had a sink
so, she tired of her husband’s cheery note
and stuffed a silver tea tray down his throat
and he remarked from the floor where they found him reclining
i’m just a mccloud with a silver lining
