Getting The Form Right
boblipton30 June 2021
Follow the bouncing ball to sing this really old-time, Tin Pan Alley song.

I'm not sure when the Fleischers hit on the format for what would be their classic period of Screen songs: three minutes of gag-filled story, one straight version of lyric and chorus, second set, with the words ornamented like a moving medieval Bible. It's in use here, even though most of the gags are a little weak.
