Allan Sherman - Call Me lyrics

rate me

Parody of "Call Me Irresponsible" by Frank Sinatra,<br />

From the movie "Papa's Delicate Condition") <br />

Call me Efrem Zimbalist,<br />

Get me Bobby Kennedy,<br />

Then call Dave Ben-Gurion, too.<br />

Then tell Carol Baker I'm home, now;<br />

Tell her Mastroianni sends love from Rome now. <br />

Then get Hank Mancini<br />

And tell him Fred Fellini is waiting;<br />

Where the heck is the song?<br />

Order Scotch and ice and then<br />

Ring up Barbra Streisand and<br />

Then set up a conference call<br />

With Sammy Davis and Charles de Gaulle. <br />

Call me Walter Cronkite<br />

And tell him Nancy Dickerson said<br />

That David Brinkley was wrong.<br />

Then get Conrad Hilton in Bombay;<br />

Tell him Tuesday night I want peaches flambe. <br />

Call Chief Justice Warren<br />

And tell him Sophie Loren is worried;<br />

Is she married or not?<br />

Then call Arthur Schlesinger;<br />

No, no, send a messenger<br />

With the saddest news of the bunch:<br />

Tell Lady Bird I'll be late for lunch. <br />

Dial up Liberace<br />

And, while up, Joe Valachi<br />

And tell him Lucky sends his regards.<br />

Find out where Onassis' barge is;<br />

Call him, ship-to-shore, and reverse the charges. <br />

Locate Melvin Belli<br />

And tell Mel One-Eye Felli was scratched<br />

By Princess Margaret's rose.<br />

Then call Lollabrigida,<br />

This week she's in Wichita,<br />

And then, when you reach Cary Grant,<br />

Tell him I'd love to, but I just can't. <br />
