Re: William Zantzinger appreciation thread

[Guest]

It is interesting how history can be represented

I did a Hattie Carroll rewrite sometime. Can't remember if it was here, or over there. Think it was here. May have to enlist in the Cache n' Carry platoon to liberate it. Better be doin' that fer Siegfried und Roy, too.

Siegfried und Roy

The best of what's left of the old ATU "Siegfried und Roy's Bob Dylan Appreciation" thread:

...a particularly sad loss.

Eddie, thankyou so much for pulling up Sig n' Roy. I'll have to try and get my head round how and what to do with the little tinkers. Perhaps unleash and set them on Kaiser Wilhelm Zantziger.

Funny. An across the universe+hattie googlesearch led me to this on ER:



The Loathsome Threat of Hattie Carroll

William Zantzinger tapped whore Hattie Carroll
With a blow-up cane that he bought from a funfair
At a Baltimore charity civil rights gath'rin'
And the cops came and punctured his cane right before him
And then beat him up on the ride to the station
And booked William Zantzinger for war crimes and murder
But you who philosophise on drapes and criticise all chairs
Take those pince-nez away from your face
Now ain't the time to see clear

William Zantzinger, who at 24 years
Runs a shelter for 600 Quakers
And spends all his money to provide and protect them
But hateful Hattie Carroll, she set out to thwart him
Reacted to his deed by deliberately dying
After swear words and sneering, her tongue she was swallowing
In a matter of minutes in jail he was wallowing
But you who pontificate on race and then critique a pear
Take that latte away from your face
Then flick back that foppish blonde hair

Hattie Carroll got laid in the kitchen
She was 20 years old and gave birth to 51 children
Who stole the dishes and ransacked the garbage
And she always took up 4 seats at the table
And never ever talked to the people at the table
And just hoovered up all their food from the table
And emptied it into a mouth like a stable,
Her death was a show, that she feigned with a cane
That floated through the air, came down like a balloon
Doomed and determined to destroy all the gentle.
And he never done nothing did William Zantzinger
But you who rearrange old crates, and wear bell-bottomed flares
Shave that goatee away from your face
Now ain't the time for beat beards

In the courtroom the judge he proceeded to gargle
And prove that lying crack whore Hattie Carroll’s
Post-mortem statement was unvarnished drivel
And that noble Zantzinger got cruelly mishandled
After the cops had chased after and thrashed him
And that even a philanthropist he can’t escape ‘em
Stared at the person who cared for a reason
Whose love for poor blacks was both selfless and warming
And he spoke through a throat, most deep and distinguished
And handed out strongly, for penalty and repentance
Hattie Carroll….. with a lifetime sentence
Oh, but you who philosophise disgrace after 46 long years
Deck your brownstone windows with lace
But don’t buy no canes from funfairs.
