King of Comedy, King of Tracks



The birthday list today's topped by

Bob Hope ... really quite a guy ...

The legendary stand-up comic with flair

Who's now been just about everywhere



And Al Unser Senior is also celebrating

Although it's his son who'll be navigating

The corners of the Indy Five Hundred track

The race which'll be run tomorrow in all its laps



And Gary Brooker - who sang the songs

While Robin Trower strummed along ...

Creating the progressive rock sound ...

For which Procul Harum was reknown



- Tristram
