On Customary Faces in Other Places
Many a song--
correct me if I'm wrong--
has been written about the face
although some have been euphemisms
for some other place
in the body--
for lovers to to explore
as, perhaps, in I've Grown Accustomed to Your...
while others are mere truisms
by lyricists whose work is shoddy.
In the movie based upon Mary Shelley's science fiction
humorously blended with porn,
Young Frankenstein inspired
in Madeline Kahn a love completely reborn
as if transported to some elegant castle in France
by the transplanted Monster's schwanz.
But now , because of modern medicine
what was once fantasy is now real
and, more and more actually seen,
transforming the humorous and tragic
by intricate miracles of surgical magic.

Lyrics
Edit
- Bart:
- Dad, I'm really glad you're still alive.
- Homer:
- Yeah, it's every parent's dream to outlive their children. Good night, son.
- (Homer turns off the light, closes the door, but then Sideshow Bob appears.)
- Sideshow Bob:
- Hello, Bart.
- (Bart screams and then searches for the buzzer.)
- Sideshow Bob:
- Looking for this? (holds the buzzer in his hand) Now I'm going to take some advice that was given to me byLenny, and kill you without doing. One thrust and the deed is done. I....I can't do it.
- Bart:
- Huh? Why not?
- Sideshow Bob:
- Well, I guess I've—dear God—grown accustomed to your face!
- I've grown accustomed to his face,
- And dreams of gouging out his eyes.
- I've grown accustomed to my hate
- My plans to lacerate,
- To disembowel,
- To hear him howl.
- The very reason that I live
- Is plotting how to watch him die.
- Homer:
- (banging on the door) Bart! Turn down that original cast recording and go to sleep!
- Sideshow Bob:
- I know this chubby scalawag
- Has made my life a living hell
- Surely, if I drank his blood,
- I'd be at peace...
- But well...
- Bart:
- You've grown accustomed to my face?
- Sideshow Bob:
- This isn't a duet.
- Bart:
- Sorry.
- Sideshow Bob:
- I've grown accustomed to your fear,
- Accustomed to revenge,
- Accustomed to your face.
- We shall meet again, old friend. But now, I must steal away into the night.
