Julie Andrews |
This past week was Julie Andrews 76th birthday...can it be possible?
To commemorate her 69th birthday , actress/vocalist, Julie Andrews made a
special appearance at Manhattan 's Radio City Music Hall for the
benefit of the AARP. One of the musical numbers she performed was 'My
Favorite Things' from the legendary movie 'Sound Of Music'. Here are
the lyrics she used:
(Sing It!) - If you sing it, its especially hysterical!!!
Botox and nose drops and needles for knitting, Walkers and handrails and
new dental fittings, Bundles of magazines tied up in string, These are a
few of my favorite things.
Cadillacs and cataracts, hearing aids and glasses, Polident and Fixodent
and false teeth in glasses, Pacemakers, golf carts and porches with
swings, These are a few of my favorite things.
When the pipes leak, When the bones creak, When the knees go bad, I
simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel so bad.
Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions, No spicy hot food or
food cooked with onions, Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they
bring,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Back pain, confused brains and no need for sinnin', Thin bones and
fractures and hair that is thinnin', And we won't mention our short
shrunken frames, When we remember our favorite things.
When the joints ache, When the hips break,
When the eyes grow dim,
Then I remember the great life I've had,
And then I don't feel so bad.
Ms. Andrews received a standing ovation from the crowd that lasted
over four minutes and repeated encores.
