Lily was there

by

With Lily Tomlin's adlib from "The

search for signs of intelligent life

in the Universe", by Jane Wagner.

She was truly a season's splendor passing

It seemed for her wild Irish roses grew

Filled with their golden nectar enclosed

Their pink fragrance pure wind flowing

As with flashing eyes her story she told

Chocolate chestnut eyes of glowing coals

Eyes brighter than glorious orbiting moon

That day I heard Lily Tomlin spoon

The most brilliant ad-lib I ever did hear

In Schubert theater of Boston's yesteryear

FROM

"The search for signs of

intelligent life in the Universe."

I heard her bag lady chracter say

"I wish someone had told me before I

started out,

How boringly predictable life becomes

when you have everything."

And than a man in the back balcony shouted

"Lay off the Kennedys"

Lily stopped her show and solemly apologized

We never found out what the man meant

by hollering "Lay off the Kennedys"
