Oscar

You can try
To put one over
On old Rover.

You can lead
A horse to water.
You break ‘er, You bought ‘er.

If at first you
Don’t succeed,
Soak your words in gasoline.

Gas, Grass or Ass,
My time has come
To pass.

A bird in the hand
Will slip away
Like sand.

Run silent, run deep.
Never mind
Your soul to keep.

Play it as it lays.
Oh well, it’s
Just a phase.

Know when to hold ‘em,
Lie down and play
dumb.

Nice work
If you can get it.
Hows about a little credit.

Run me out on a rail.
At the twofer
One cent sale.

Jeepers Creepers
Finders Keepers
Lovers leapers
Loser sweepers

Live Long and Prosper.
I’d like to thank the Academy
For this Oscar.
