My Favourite Things


To commemorate her 69th Birthday, Julie Andrews made a
special appearance at Manhattan's Radio City Music
hall. One of the musical numbers she performed was "My
Favourite Things" with the deliberately changed lyrics
for her "blue hair" audience.
Sing it and it is veeery funny!!!
Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting,
Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings,
Bundles of magazines tied up in string;
These are a few of my favourite things.
Cadillac's and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses
Poli dent and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses,
Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with swings,
These are a few of my favourite things.
When the pipes leak, when the bones creak,
when the knees go bad I simply remember my favourite
things, And then I don't feel so bad.
Hot tea and crumpets, and corn pads for bunions,
No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions,
Bathrobes and heat pads and hot meals they bring,
These are a few of my favourite things.
Back pains, confused brains and no fear of sinnin',
Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinin',
And we wont mention out short shrunken frames,
When we remember our favourite things.
When the joints ache, when the hips break, when the
eyes grow dim, Then I remember the great life I've
had, and then I don't feel so bad!
Julie received a standing ovation from the crowd that
lasted over 4 minutes and repeated encores.
Every phase of Life lends itself to humour!!
