Mixing Up Some Classics
(Or Shakespeare Rattle and Roll)

Little Richard III
by William Shakespeare & Richard Penniman (aka Little Richard)

Act One: SCENE II

LADY ANNE
Villain, thou know'st no law of God nor man:
No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity.

Little Richard III
Bama lama, bama loo, bama lama, bama loo,
Bama lama, bama loo, bama lama, bama loo,
Now I dig her style, she's like a drive me wild with
Bama lama, bama loo.

LADY ANNE
O wonderful, when devils tell the truth!

Little Richard III
Tutti frutti, oh rutti,
Tutti frutti, oh rutti,
Wop bop a loo bop a lop bam boom!

LADY ANNE
Fouler than heart can think thee, thou canst make
No excuse current, but to hang thyself.

Little Richard III
I asked my baby for kiss, she shook her head like this,
I asked my little girl for kiss, she shook her head around like this,

LADY ANNE
I hope so.

Little Richard III
She rocks to the East, she rocks to the West,
She is the gal that I love best,

LADY ANNE
Would it were mortal poison, for thy sake!

Little Richard III
If I can't find my baby, then you know darn well,
I'm gonna ring your door till I break your bell.

LADY ANNE
'Tis more than you deserve;
But since you teach me how to flatter you,
Imagine I have said farewell already.

Little Richard III
When you're rockin' and a rollin', can't hear your mama call.
