Tom Lehrer

For anyone who doesn’t think that Americans can do biting satire, I would like to remind you of the brilliant Tom Lehrer, born 1928 and still with us, having released his music into the public domain.

For a few apposite pieces, as relevant today as they were when he wrote and sang them I give you

We Will All Go Together When We Go - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frAEmhqdLFs

and Be Prepared https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hoEVPtVk9nE

Delightful in their observation and humour (much more available)

@Wen Nearly had a heart attack when I saw his name. I thought you were posting that he’d died!

@Wen I loved his songs, especially Vatican Rag (I'm a catholic convert 😂), and his marching song for pornography:
Smut,
give me smut
and nothing but,
a dirty novel I can't shut,
if it's uncut
and un- su... btle 😂😂😂

@Wen One of my personal favourite.Tom Lehrer songs- So Long Mom (a Song for WlII)

Given the current state of the Middle East, I truly hope that the song remains satire.
