What's pink and smells of ginger? Fred Astaire's finger. Submitted by: Huggy Hare
| Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers were having dinner at an expensive New York restaurant. It was the place to be seen and both had dressed for the occasion. Ginger was resplendent in a ball gown and diamond tiara while Fred wore his smartest morning suit. But the evening was marred when the waiter bringing their deserts tripped and covered Fred from head to toe in treacle sponge. 'I�'m terribly sorry' said the waiter. You should be' replied Fred 'Thanks to you I�'ve got pudding on my top hat, pudding on my white tie, pudding on my tails.' Submitted by:

Story about this misheard lyric by: Moem I thought the person lovingly described in this song might be wearing ill-fitting dentures just like my grandmother. She was always making these sucking sounds. It had become a part of her personality really. |
