September 19 - Cass Elliot; Rex Smith (The Musical Birthday Series)

Mors Morsel

That apocryphal cause of her death -
That sandwich they found by her side -
Alas, you’ll be wasting your breath
Explaining that’s not she died.

You can prove that it’s simply untrue,
Repeat and repeat ‘til you’re weary,
But you’ll have to acknowledge that you
Can’t beat a conspiracy theory.








Poor Wandering One

Rex Smith had looks,
But not much talent.
To bring it up
Might be ungallant,
But if you’re doing
G and S,
You should learn to sing,
I’d guess.
