The Easy Giggle

Showing how the leading comedian may always get a certain hand.

When the vein of comicality
Is voided of vitality,
And all the silly little
Tattle-tittle
    Has been done,
There always is a visible
Assurance of the risible
By dexterously using
An amusing
    Little pun.

CHORUS

You can always get a laugh with that.
Or by joshing any lady who is fat,
When you sing the second stanza,
Speak of Dressler or Friganza—
You can always get a line with that,

The ways of being humorous
Are not so very numerous;
They’ll laugh until they’re crying
When you’re guying
New Rochelle;
And nearly all humanity
Will giggle at profanity—
The whole entire gamut
Clear from ‘‘——— —”
Down to “ ———.”

CHORUS
You can always get a laugh with that—
Never try to hit the crowd above the hat,
If you want to get’em shrieking,
Imitate a lady speaking—
You can always get a laugh with that.
