After the applause, her father says, "Olivia, that was a great list of favorite things for a nine year old little girl...but we have folks here tonight that look like they might be a little older than that.

Do you have a list of things that are important to them?!"

And she sings...

Maalox and nose drops and needles for knitting
Walkers and handrails and new dental fittings
Bundles of magazines tied up in strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Cadillacs and cataracts and hearing aids and glasses
Polident and Fixodent and false teeth in glasses
Pacemakers, golf carts, and porches with swings
These are a few of my favorite things

When the pipes leak, when the bones creak
When the knees go bad
Just simply remember your favorite things
And then you won't feel so bad

Hot tea and crumpets and corn pads for bunions
No spicy hot food or food cooked with onions
Bathrobes and heating pads and hot meals they bring
These are a few of my favorite things

Back pains, confused brains, always something needs mended
Thin bones and fractures and hair that is thinnin'
And we won't mention your short, shrunken frames
When we remember your favorite things

When the joints ache, when the hips break
When the eyes grow dim
Just simply remember the great life you've had
And then you won't feel so bad

Here is another one that always makes me laugh. . .(to the tune of God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen)

1. The restroom door said Gentlemen
So I just walked inside
I took two steps and realized
I'd been taken for a ride
I heard high voices turned and found
The place was occupied

By two nuns, three old ladies, and a nurse
What could be worse?
Than two nuns, three old ladies and a nurse.

2. The restroom door said Gentlemen
It must have been a gag
As soon as I walked in there I ran into some old hag
She sprayed me with a can of mace
And snapped me with her bag.

I could tell this just wouldn't be my day
What can I say?
It just wasn't turning out to be my day.

3. The restroom door said Gentlemen
And I would like to find
The crummy little creep who had the nerve to switch the sign
Cause I've got two black eyes
And one high heel up my behind

Now I can't sit with comfort and joy
Boy, oh, boy
No, I'll never sit with comfort and joy.

My favorite:

It's a marshmallow world in the winter
When the snow comes to cover the ground
It's the time for play, it's a whipped cream day
I wait for it the whole year round.

Those are marshmallow clouds being friendly
In the arms of the evergreen trees
And the sun is red like a pumpkin head
It's shining so your nose wont freeze.

The world is your snowball, see how it grows
Thats how it goes whenever it snows
The world is your snowball just for a song
Get out and roll it along

It's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts
Take a walk with your favorite girl
It's a sugar date, what if spring is late
In winter it's a marshmallow world.

This song is a litle too, uh...um..."sweet" for my liking.
