The Song List for TOMFOOLERY

At some point there will be full links to all the song lyrics laid out as if they were from the Souvenir Lyric Book from the London performance of this show. The lyrics used for this show are often different from what Tom Lehrer recorded on his albums. Some were made for the London audience, others were made for reasons I can't fathom. Cameron Macintosh writes about this in comments on this show. Most changed are only a few words, but a whole new stanza for Be Prepared was written for this show.
