George Brent
My wife is in love with George Brent…
But this is not as bad as it may seem.
You see, he was a wonderful actor
On the old time, silver screen.
He appears often via the Turner channel,
Usually in the wee hours of the night.
She curls up and dreamily watches him,
As she hugs her pillow tight.
Now, I really can’t blame her.
George was ever so dashing…
In his double breasted suits,
Vintage smile, seductively flashing.
Such an appealing actor…
Leading man to every female star.
Yes, he romanced them all:
Garbo, Bette Davis and Hedy Lamarr.
But that’s only a bit of the list…
Barbara Stanwyck, Merle Oberon, Myrna Loy…
Brent made love to all of them…
He was a very busy boy.
But my wife’s obsession doesn’t upset me.
Jealousy doesn’t cloud this husband’s head.
I don’t feel in any way threatened…
You see, my friends…
George has been,
For a long time,
Dead.
