New Adventures of Queen Victoria by Pab Sungenis for November 16, 2015

Oscar loves a challenge.

Mel Brooks has been making musical versions of some of his past movies, including The Producers and Young Frankenstein. Strangely, I haven’t heard of any plans to do the same thing with Silent Movie.

What about, Piraña the Musical?

Hmmm. This is not going to end well…

Can we have a skating scene in this one, with the nuclear winter and heavy water?

It could be worse… it could be “Threads.”

First we got the bomb, and that was good,‘Cause we love peace and motherhood.Then Russia got the bomb, but that’s okay,‘Cause the balance of power’s maintained that way.Who’s next?

France got the bomb, but don’t you grieve,‘Cause they’re on our side (I believe).China got the bomb, but have no fears,They can’t wipe us out for at least five years.Who’s next?

Then Indonesia claimed that theyWere gonna get one any day.South Africa wants two, that’s right:One for the black and one for the white.Who’s next?

Egypt’s gonna get one too,Just to use on you know who.So Israel’s getting tense.Wants one in self defense.“The Lord’s our shepherd,” says the psalm,But just in case, we better get a bomb.Who’s next?

Luxembourg is next to go,And (who knows?) maybe Monaco.We’ll try to stay serene and calmWhen Alabama gets the bomb.Who’s next?Who’s next?Who’s next?Who’s next?
