Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mary Pickford used to eat roses
Thought that they'd make her beautiful
And they did one supposes
[Verse 2]
Douglas Fairbanks, he was so handsome
He wore a mustache, must've had much cash too
Worth a king's ransom
[Verse 3]
Charlie Chaplin, he was invited
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
[Verse 4]
David Griffith worked as an extra
Then as a stagehand
Until they let him be a director
[Verse 5]
Dave was brave, a mover and shaker
A true pioneer, he seemed to show no fear
A real film maker
[Verse 6]
Just like Chaplin, he was invited
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
[Verse 7]
They tied the knot together
Groom and bride couldn't hide their pleasure
They tried to pick fair weather
But love died and didn't last forever
[Verse 8]
Mary Pickford used to eat roses
Thought that they'd make her beautiful
And they did one supposes
[Verse 9]
Douglas Fairbanks, he was so handsome
He wore a mustache, must've had much cash too
Worth a king's ransom
[Verse 10]
Charlie Chaplin, he was invited
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
When these artists became united
