James E.F Landau - The Last Name Song lyrics

ANDREO

Smith-hyphen-Moore-hyphen-Brown-hyphen-Gore,

Some more hyphens with Johnson and Green;

Palmer and Hook, and then Matterson, Cooke,

And Pierce, and then Winters and Dean;

Some more of my family is Drinkwater, Wheatland, then Waters, Fields,

Hopkins and Banks;

There's Studham and Stidham, then add a whole cache

Of more hyphens for Benson and Hawkins and Nash,

Wells-Wheeler and Richmond, then add one more dash --

Make some more room for "Turne" now. Thanks!

Martinez-Melendez-Rodriguez-Menendez,

Garcia, and Ruiz and Ruz;

Calderon and Paz, Barraza-Diaz,

Saenz and Alvarez, Cruz;

Gomez and Suarez and Lopez and Juarez, Zamora, Andrade, Ortegas;

Villanueva, Ojeda and Prado and Sias,

Trujillo-Velazquez-Machado-Casillas,

Riviera-Jimenez-Ortiz-Perez-Dias

Hinojosa-Bermudez and Vegas!

Rivoire-Cartier-Breaux-Lamoureux-Vallée,

Bailly, LeClair and Perot;

And let's not forget Lafayette and Vallette

And Peugeot, Baudelaire, Beliveau!

Laroche-Vaux-Giroux-Beauchamp-LaCasse-Ledoux, and Dupont and Dupris

and DuBose

And after I've recited Bruchon and D'Alain,

And then Brun and LeJean and Caron and Jourdain,

Beaudoin and Mallein and Cézanne, Guillotin,

I can balance this pen on my nose!

Russo-Petrini-Vespucci-Rossini,

Dell'aqua-Farina-Falcone

Moretta and Izzo and, yes, even Zizzo,

Vinci-Gentile-Calderone

Poletta-Guidotti-Puccini-Barsotti, my list is still far from

complete

'Cause there's still Lo Bianco, Lombardo, Rossetti,

Quilici, Costanza, Buono, Allegretti

Of course Malucelli and then Cappelletti

Now, how would you like some to eat?

Cohen-Strauss-Kahn-Kaplan-Levin-Dayan,

Rothschild, Shapiro and Steinberg;

Eppinger-Klein-Goldfarb-Mokoltov-Stein,

Blumenthal, Isaacs and Feinberg;

Rosenberg, Rosenthal, Goldman, and Stahl, Roth and Rothau-Steinau-

Rosenau

There's Silver and Diamant, speaking of which,

Then add Goldberg and Silverstein --

CHENG

Boy, is he rich!

ANDREO

Hirschfeld-Levine-Howitt-Rabinowitz,

Hohenstein, Feldman, Landau
