After introducing the
rhythmic
flights of fancy
of poems like
Them Toad Suckers
and
Them Yodel Yellers
,
Mason Williams
slips in what is essentially a
haiku
form of his
Them Poems
on his
1964
LP
(VJLP 1103). While pieces like
Them Hog Liver Likers
or
Them Moose Goosers
typically use five
verse
s to round out their topic, buoyed by the meter, Them Hors D'Oeuvres is only one verse, giving the
listener
just a little taste (
appropriate
, given the subject matter).
How about Them
Hors D'Oeuvres
,
Ain't they
sweet
?
Little piece a
cheese
,
Little piece a
meat
