Music, Book & Lyrics by Tom Lehrer
Directed & Designed by Alan Buckman

Contents
Introduction
"Poisoning pigeons in the Park", "Masochism Tango", "The Vatican Rag", and 22 more comic songs, sarcastic ditties, and parodies, linked, revue-style, with Lehrer's own commentary. A hilarious evening of biting musical humour with the uniquely caustic style of Tom Lehrer.
In his own words, "If after hearing my songs, just one human being is inspired to say something nasty to a friend, or perhaps to strike a loved one, it will have been worthwhile".
