Da Vinci was mischievous and wanted to deface
his signature portrait and it's historic place
so Mona Lisa had to finally embrace
when a cream pie came crashing right into her face!

--

He sacrificed his art but had to thank
that his jingle for laxatives was catchy and frank
and by laughing all the way to the bank
the unwitting Mozart walked the corporate plank!

--

The bored housewives of suburban hell
have a 'Tupperware party' story to tell
as they succumbed to the charm of a hard sell
when Rasputin arrived to ring their bell!

--

Man's infallibility was dealt a severe blow.
The tide would turn and progress was slow.
The enigma continues as mysteries grow.
This ship in a bottle had nowhere to go!

--

Their brains were small but their hearts were big
and had this been planned as a benefit gig
"Save the Dinosaurs" would be remembered today
when the musical community came out to play!
