A jolly good day to you, Miss Clooney. And a jolly good day to you, Mr. Crosby. What do you plan to sing, Rosie? Thanks for asking, Ken. You, old son of a gun. Oh, well, that's okay, but what's your saying?
You, old son of a gun? That's the title of your song, huh? Sounds a bit slangy, doesn't it? Really a term of endearment. Well, then, what an auspicious way to send greetings from North Cross greeting cards.
They'll start a ringy like ding-donger, ding-y. My heart is a winging and I feel like singing. With fancy freaks, always on the run Till one day you captured me You old son of a gun When I let you steal a kiss It was all in fun, never thought you old son of a gun
I can't deny you were not the guy That I'd been dreaming about The bell started singing like it's on the thing and I knew that it was love Yea, that lost my heart tonight Cupid's work is done I just turned off the light You old son of a gun Not the guy, but the bell And I knew that it was love
A heart tonight Cupid's work is done Son of a gun Ken, would you say I was basically captivating, candid, vivacious, or exotic? Oh, by all means, exotic. Exactly, thanks.
Oh, well, why do you ask? Well, in case anybody wanted to send me a North Cross Rose card to match my mood, I wondered which one would be appropriate. Well, that's right. This is the year of the North Cross Rose, isn't it?
The year will be remembered for nothing else. The North Cross Rose cards, each one with its own special rose for its own special damsel. The Norcross Mint Beauty Rose Card, the Norcross Roses to Lata, the Norcross Champagne Rose, the American Beauty, and so many more.
