Okay, so...

There has GOT to be someone on my flist who is both spifty enough to know dancing and cultured enough to know Tom Lehrer.

Is "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" a waltz?

First you get down on your knees, fiddle with your rosary, bow your head with great respect AND- Genuflect, genuflect, genuflect...

Wrong one. But yes, "Poisoning Pigeons" is indeed a waltz, in 3/4 from the beginning of the song.

Sorcy, where'zat script?

I know the 'Vatican Rag' isn't about Poisoning Pigeons, I'm just celebrating Lehrer...

*how* much trouble did you have saying that?

And Masochism Tango totally is the best dancing one he did.

I've heard a barbershop quartet singing Masochism Tango. Just thought I'd add that in.
