No Barnyard Sounds


When the baritone Robert Goulet

Appeared in musical play,

The audience found

That his elegant sound

Was never a bark or a bray.

It Wouldn't Be in Summer


He achieved instant recognition with his performance and interpretation of the song "If Ever I Would Leave You", which became his signature song. — Wikipedia


Did he ever succumb to dismay

That that song had become a cliché?

Did he long to be glib

With a naughty ad lib

In a quite unprofessional way?
