Marve Fisher

"I like the old-fashioned flowers, Violets are for me — Have them made in diamonds by the man at Tiffany."

"Id like a plain simple car, A cerise Cadillac — Long enough to have a bowling alley in the back."

"Im just an old-fashioned girl With an old-fashioned mind, Not sophisticated, Im the plain and simple kind. I want an old-fashioned house With an old-fashioned fence And an old-fashioned millionaire."

"In our cottage there will be A soundproof nursery, Not to wake the baby while Im counting."

"I like Chopin and Bizet And the songs of yesterday, String quartets and Polynesian carols. But the music that excels Is the sound of oil wells As they slurp, slurp, slurp into the barrels."
