"Ah, petite soeur, tu es un veritable petit Chopin!"

"Mais qu'est-ce qu'il y a?
Voyons, tu es toute pale.
Montre-moi ta langue.
J'espere bien que ce n'est pas le smallpox."


The Philadelphia Story, 1940
George Cukor

Virginia Weidler, Ruth Hussey, James Stewart, Katharine Hepbur

"Lydia oh Lydia, say have you met Lydia,
Lydia, the Tattooed Lady.
She has eyes that folks adore so,
And a torso even more so.
[What is this? - ldiot, probably.]
Lydia oh Lydia, that encyclopedia,
Oh Lydia the Queen of Tattoo.
On her back is the Battle of Waterloo.
Beside it the wreck of the Hesperus, too.
And proudly above waves the Red, White, and Blue,
You can learn a lot from Lydia."

Lydia the Tatooed Lady
musica de/music by Harold Arlen
letras de/lyrics by E.Y. Harburg

originalmente cantada por/originally sang by Groucho Marx, At the Circus, 1939
