What did you sing for tonight?

Steak tips on salad with rice here.

Sing for your supper, WPA poster, ca. 1938

Songs in this revue included "A Tisket a Tax It," "Oh Boy Can We Deduct" and "Her Pop's a Cop." No, really (http://www.ibdb.com/production-songs.php?ShowNo=8037&ProdNo=12464).

Is that supposed to be Uncle Sam in the chef hat? If so, he has definitely seen better days!

I thought the hat was supposed to be a squid, or a jellyfish.

That's pretty bad when musical theatre is reduced to the level of "government work"! It's like a day waiting in line at the DMV set to music with all the joy and pizazz of the welfare office!

I guess before the government bailed out Wall Street, it was bailing out Broadway. :P
