DICK DEADEYE

Never mind the why and wherefore,/Searle is at his best and therefore,/Though the text is thick as pudding/There's a plum in every part/Sent up from the mighty duo/Though bypassing D'Oyly Carte. Mad color cartoons by Searle and Goon Show mayhem and parodies by Jeremy Hornsby. The Pinafore at sea, plastered with Band Aids and tippling singers, is alone worth the price. (Based on a full-length animated film).
