A Toast!
Lyrics By Karel Music by Morgan Mallory
Performed by Morgan Mallory
Oscar was a man so wilde
And their judgment wasn’t mild
Went to jail for being gay
Writing all along the way
His characters jumped off the page
And to this day, he’s all the rage
He wasn’t shy, he’d sometimes boast
And that is why we have this toast.
So Raise A glass and
Toast
Today you are the
most
A star from coast
To coast
You’re shining bright
It is your night
So Raise a Glass and
Toast
You act, you sing, you play
Get millions through the day
Your art inspires
The stars conspire
And now, you get a toast!
Who knows, one day, a roast!
So Raise A glass and
Toast
Today you are the
most
A star from coast
To coast
You’re shining bright
It is your night
So Raise a Glass and
Toast

He guest starred in the Apple series Little America, HBO’s Room 104 and Don’t Look Too Deep directed by Catherine Hardwick. He also served as a recurring guest star on season three of NBC’s The Good Place and Nickelodeon’s The Thundermans.
