You Dirty, Double-crossing Rat.

Once A Song And Dance Man, Always A Song And Dance Man. Those Few Words Tell As Much About Me Professionally As There Is To Tell.

My Childhood Was Surrounded By Trouble, Illness, And My Dad's Alcoholism, But As I Said, We Just Didn't Have The Time To Be Impressed By All Those Misfortunes. I Have An Idea That The Irish Possess A Built-in Don't-give-a-damn That Helps Them Through All The Stress.

Though I Soon Became Typecast In Hollywood As A Gangster And Hoodlum, I Was Originally A Dancer, An Irish Hoofer, Trained In Vaudeville Tap Dance. I Always Leapt At The Opportunity To Dance In Films Later On.

I Got A Part As A Chorus Girl In A Show Called Every Sailor And I Had Fun Doing It. Mother Didn't Really Approve Of It, Through.

The Postman Always Ringstwice.
