The Lyrics
Dribble Slips…Muffs It
Dribble slips…muffs it;
the drive to the bucket
isn’t going her way.
The coach starts to chide her
on the bench, beside her.
That night she’ll sit tight, no more play.
Hicks in the Sticks Nix This Schlock
Hicks in the sticks set to block
flicks they consider schlock.
Studios stunned;
they’d been outgunned.
Hicks in the sticks nixed this schlock.
(“Sticks Nix Hix Pix,” famous headline in Variety, in 1935m for an article about the reaction of rural audiences to movies about rural life.)
Distressed-Wary Is Miss Mary
Distressed-wary is Miss Mary;
this style is getting old.
Though it still sells,
to her, it smells,
the worn look that’s totally faux.
Dribble slips…muffs it;
the drive to the bucket
isn’t going her way.
The coach starts to chide her
on the bench, beside her.
That night she’ll sit tight, no more play.
Hicks in the Sticks Nix This Schlock
Hicks in the sticks set to block
flicks they consider schlock.
Studios stunned;

Hicks in the sticks nixed this schlock.

Distressed-wary is Miss Mary;

Though it still sells,
to her, it smells,
the worn look that’s totally faux.
