Song Parody Fragments:
"On A Clear Day"
Better Lyrics:
On a clear day
Thank the Dems around you
Gods of weather they are
For hurricanes
You can blame the Dem Jews
Powerful beings who even control the stars
Thank the Dems around you
Gods of weather they are
For hurricanes
You can blame the Dem Jews
Powerful beings who even control the stars
Original Lyrics:
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who you are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being outshines every star
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who you are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being outshines every star

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:
"Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat"
The Misrhymed Lyrics: I'm through and through red, white and bluish,
I talk this way Because I'm British. Why They're Misrhymed: In this song from the Broadway musical Funny Girl, the singer is playing Private Irving Schvartz (Schvartz being a common last name among Jews) and singing in a string Yiddish accent; it's obvious that the word British doesn't belong there - and the word which does belong there rhymes with the previous line.

Performers with Handicaps:
"Stage Fright & Perfectionism"
OK, most singers and actors get stage fright, but her stage fright stemmed from a common mistake:
Forgetting her own lyrics in a 1967 concert in front of over 120000 people in Central Park. While most tried to keep a brave face, brush it off and carry on, she couldn't believe that she made that mistake. As a perfectionist that she is, she feared the mistake will happen again, so she never performed live for 30 years!

What A Band is Best Known For (aside from their music):
"Her Liberal Politics"
While Babs can hardly be considered a topical singer (unlike quite a few of her contemporaries), she has made no secret of her left-leaning political stance, often performing at fundraisers and other events for the U.S. Democratic Party and being an outspoken supporter of liberal causes and political figures.
