Letra
Welcome to a flowing font of truth and good and cash If you're looking for the loot to toot a flute or cure a rash If you're down on luck and need a buck we'll fund you in a flash If you'd like to write a piece on Saint-Denis or Delacroix If you must research the Church of Christ or works of Myrna Loy Don't be bashful, we've a stashful, don't be timid, don't be coy Baring market crashes, floods, or worse, inflation Baring fiscal flops or fierce devaluation In a world where next to nothing comes for free Bet you'd never thought you'd ever live to see So divine a shrine to fine philanthropy As the Rosewater Foundation, IMC We've just handed Norman Mailer fifteen thou to vent his spleen (Fly to us! Fly to us!) Here's a grant to Will Durant and to the Reverend Fulton Sheen (Apply to us! Apply to us!) Me, I'm writing the biography of Butterfly McQueen Here's four grand for Orson Bean! Drive to town, come down, fill out an application We're a boon to the artistic population They're as generous as anyone can be As enlightened and urbane as "Camera Three" We'll support you and we'll serve you herbal tea At The Rosewater Foundation, NYC (spoken) What time was your appointment with Mr. Rosewater scheduled? (spoken) 10:30 this morning (spoken) Mine was for 11. What time is it now? (spoken) 4:45 (spoken) Maybe he got stuck in traffic (sung) Here's a copy of *Horizon* to amuse you while you wait As per usual, the president is just a little late But unless you'd like to leave and ask for funding from the state (spoken) Hey can somebody give me a hand, please? I've got a lot of books here and... (sung) Hail, Eliot Rosewater President and chairman Beacon of obliging noblesse Philanthropist deluxe Hail, Eliot Rosewater Rarest of those rare men Sir you're late Your datebook's a mess Your wife called Here's your tux It's a joy to buoy the Iroquois and liberate the Cree (Willingly! Willingly!) Help the Idaho Grand Opera to produce Die Valkyrie (Chillingly! Chillingly!) And we built a "Y" in Tenafly and two in Tennessee Yes he did that! Yes-sir-ee! What a fella, fine example What a paragon, a saint (So he is, so he is!) What a pal to those who work in prose or poetry or paint (We know he is, we know is!) He's devoted and he's loaded So we haven't a complaint And we state without restraint He's the subject of out abject adulation I'm an outright blight of love and inspiration He's The Rosewater Foundation,L.T.D !
