Song Parody Fragments:
"Who Will Buy?"
Better Lyrics:
Who will buy my Mcdonalds hamburger
With french fries and a cup of coke too
Who will by my Mcdonalds hamburger
With tomato sauce that tastes like mayonaise
With french fries and a cup of coke too
Who will by my Mcdonalds hamburger
With tomato sauce that tastes like mayonaise
Original Lyrics:
Who will buy this wonderful morning
Such a sky you never did see
Who will tie it up with a ribbon
And put it in a box for me
Such a sky you never did see
Who will tie it up with a ribbon
And put it in a box for me

"Who Are You Now?"
Opening Lines: Who are you now, Now that you're mine?
Comments: "Who Are You Now?" is another song from the "Funny Girl" musical. It is sung by Fanny Brice (Barbra) to her husband Nick Arnstein in a moment of self-awareness when Fanny realizes she doesn't know her newlywed husband as much as she might have thought.

| "My Man "
Opening Lines: Oh, my man, I love him so.
Comments: "My Man" is another song from the "Funny Girl" musical. It is sung by Fanny Brice (played by Barbra in both the Broadway and motion picture version). Barbra would win her first Oscar for the 1968 motion picture, but would have to share the win (a rare double Oscar tie) with Katherine Hepburn from "The Lion In Winter".
