The Lyrics
He played a gangster role,
In the Kiss of Death,
He killed with blood very cold
Got that Richard Widmark laugh
Born in Minnesota
In Hollywood he was cast
Threw an old lady down stairs
Got that Tommy Udo laugh.
On I love Lucy, She defied Ricky,
Snuck into Widmark’s house like a mousy,
He’s a gangster, then prosecuted
Ex judge Burt Lancaster.
He’s Bogart with no decaf
with that Richard Widmark laugh.
Betrayed by Victor Mature,
He liked to have fun,
Ordered dinner for him,
with that Tommy Udo laugh.
He ended up in jail,
Every gangster’s epitaph
Academy Award,
for that Richard Widmark laugh.
He’s the villain, typecast for killin’
But then came Nuremberg Judgement,
Role of the good guy, prosecuting
All those Nazi judges.
Died at 93, on his epitaph,
It says here lies Richard Widmark’s laugh.
He’ll tease you, before he wheels you,
Down the stairs and kills you,
On I love Lucy, She defied Ricky,
Snuck into Widmark’s house like a mousy,
He’s a gangster, then prosecuted
Ex judge Burt Lancaster.
He’s Bogart with no decaf,
with that Richard Widmark laugh.
He’ll tease you, before he wheels you,
Down the stairs down the stairs and kills you,
He’s got that Richard Widmark laugh.
In the Kiss of Death,
He killed with blood very cold
Got that Richard Widmark laugh
Born in Minnesota
In Hollywood he was cast
Threw an old lady down stairs
Got that Tommy Udo laugh.
On I love Lucy, She defied Ricky,
Snuck into Widmark’s house like a mousy,
He’s a gangster, then prosecuted
Ex judge Burt Lancaster.
He’s Bogart with no decaf
with that Richard Widmark laugh.
Betrayed by Victor Mature,
He liked to have fun,
Ordered dinner for him,
with that Tommy Udo laugh.
He ended up in jail,
Every gangster’s epitaph
Academy Award,
for that Richard Widmark laugh.
He’s the villain, typecast for killin’
But then came Nuremberg Judgement,
Role of the good guy, prosecuting
All those Nazi judges.
Died at 93, on his epitaph,
It says here lies Richard Widmark’s laugh.
He’ll tease you, before he wheels you,
Down the stairs and kills you,
On I love Lucy, She defied Ricky,
Snuck into Widmark’s house like a mousy,
He’s a gangster, then prosecuted
Ex judge Burt Lancaster.
He’s Bogart with no decaf,
with that Richard Widmark laugh.
He’ll tease you, before he wheels you,
Down the stairs down the stairs and kills you,
He’s got that Richard Widmark laugh.

I'm astounded at the number of diehard Richard Widmark fanatics we have here. Looks like almost everybody here is. And so sensitive, too! Well, I dont have a dog in this Widmark fight .. so I thought this was really good
The one guy is really dedicated. 39 and counting. ;-p Anyway there are many other Widmark films I could have mentioned, but just focused on his two biggest.
Maybe THEY are the ones who are feeble minded, not my mother. You saw the movie, was my mother FEEBLE MINDED!!? You tell me. She didnt give out ones to a good parody for no reason. Was she FEEBLE MINDED??
Nice summation of some of a great actor's work.
I feel it my duty to point out that Mr. Peterson is not in his right mind ;-p
