Remember I told you months ago that there was going to be something in MAD Magazine?

Here it is...

the spoof set to "The Halls of Montezuma".....

The Monopoly Song

"From the slums of Baltic Avenue, round to Boardwalk and Park Place.....

We wll buy up all the property, build hotels on every space...

We will drive our foes to bankruptcy, if they fail to pay the price......

But we cannot even start the game til somebody finds the dice!!!"

Permission to applaud granted, LOL!

20. To "Oklahoma"

O-O-7 is the greatest spy there is today
When the going's rough
He's got the stuff
And he never lets himself be killed...

We know in a fight he will win
'Cause he wins every fight that he's in
And that is whyyyyy
When bullets start to flyyyyy
You'l be saying
You'll never die 0 0 7 007
Our spy!

27. May I play?

To "Gawd Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen":

Gawd rest ye merry football fans
Let nothing ye dismay
Remember that the NFL
Is on TV today
So sit right back
Enjoy your snack
Watch Dallas verse Green Bay

Sit right back
Eat your popcorn
Drink your beer
Popcorn and beer
Sit right back
Enjoy your popcorn and your beer


And then there was "We 3 Broads of Whorehouse Cafe" and soooooo many others, but I'll spare you the gory details for now

28. Since you're sort of an insider maybe you can tell me what "potrzebie" means

And also how to pronounce it.

I can remember when MAD was printed in comic book format and cost a dime. And I can remember riding my bike 8 miles into town just to buy it. This had to be in the early 50's and the ink from the pages was so cheap it used to come off all over your hands.

I also remember laughing my ass off in biology class about five years when I found out that an "axolotl" was some kind of salamander. I thought it was just some word that Harvey Kurtzman and Bill Gaines just pulled out of their ass.

30. The Poiuyt

was the 2/3 dimensional thingie...the letters backwards on the typewriter keyboard...I haven't thought of the potrzebie is for years...all is answered here!

On edit: that Magazine changed my life...they once had Barry Goldwater pushing the Red Button but the BEST was the kid running down the street holding a human skull saying, "Mommy Mommy, look what I found in Junior's head!"
