Book Reviews of Too Many Songs by Tom Lehrer with Not Enough Drawings by Ronald Searle
Book Review: If you like Tom Lehrer, you'll love this - ALL the lyrics
Summary: 4 Stars
To quote the man: "Life is like a sewer: what you get out of it depends on what you put into it". Tom Lehrer used to be a mathematican at Harvard in the '50s. That didn't pay so he started writing highly satirical, usually tasteless, and extremely funny songs. This has all the lyrics and most of the music from all his albums, plus the specials for the 1983 revue "Tom Foolery", and the songs he wrote for "The Electric Company". If you know "The Elements", "The Masochism Tango" or "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park", you need this book. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, then buy the CD "An Evening Wasted with Tom Lehrer" first.
