Parody: Rags to Riches (Live)

Richard Adler, Jerry Ross

[Live Intro]
Firstly
Thank you, Paramount, and this, uh
I'd like you have—have you beat my special material right up
Mr. Ralph Sharon at the piano, ladies and gentlemen
He's the illegitimate Allan Sherman, he writes these—he wrote a parody tonight on "Rags to Riches"
We're gonna try it out, I hope this doesn't—
You're sure about this, Ralph?
Hah, what?

[Verse]
Now just because my name is Tony
Some folks expect Italian songs
Though I'm fond of macaroni, I know where it belongs
I've never been to old Sorrento, or еven looked at sunny Rome
I'm just a Latin from Manhattan, Nеw York's my home
Now, Venice and Naples don't mean much to me
I swing in Vegas, not Sicily
I go for pizza, but no, don't you "vita" for me
So please, relax and sip your vino
"Enjoy your—," this is pretty good, "Enjoy your life," the good book says
Thank you, Ralph
For just like Frank and [?]
At heart, I'm [?]

[Live Outro]
Should we keep going?
Thank you
