Thank You So Much, Missus Lowsborough-Goodby

Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby gives weekends

And her weekends are not a success

But she asks you so often, you finally soften

And end by answering "Yes"

When I left Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby

The letter I wrote was polite

But it would have been bliss, had I dared write her this

The letter I wanted to write:

Thank you so much, Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby

Thank you so much

Thank you so much for that infinite weekend with you

Thank you a lot, Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby

Thank you a lot

And don't be surprised

If you suddenly should be quietly shot

For the clinging perfume

Of that damp little room

For those cocktails so hot

And the bath that was not

For those guests so amusing and mentally bracing

Who talked about racing, and racing, and racing

For the ptomaine I got from your famous tin salmon

And the fortune I lost when you taught me backgammon

For those mornings I spent with your dear but deaf mother

For those evenings I passed with that bounder, your brother

And for making me swear to myself there and then

Never to go for a weekend again

Thank you so much, Mrs. Lowsborough-Goodby

Thank you, thank you so much
