The Word for today is quinteseential. I know that I have already used Q for Quintessential earlier in the A to Z Challenge when referring to Jolly Holiday. While Jolly Holiday is a perfect example of a Sherman Vrother’s tune. Zuckerman’s famous pig is an ideal example of a barber shop quartet song. I’m not sure why, but I’m a big fan of one person multi-tracks so here is one for ZFP.
He’s…some pig…some pig
Some terrific, radiant, humble pig
He is some pig
Oh wow look at him now Zuckerman’s famous pig
Sooey, what do you see
The greatest hog in history
Fine swine wish he was mine
What if he’s not so big
He’s some terrific, radiant, humble
Thingamajig of a fine phenomenon
My land isn’t it grand
Zuckerman’s famous pig
Golly, you got to agree
He’s a real celebrity
Fine swine, wish he was mine
What if he’s not so big?
He’s some terrific radiant, humble
Thingamajig pig
