Yes, I took ''does will'' and ''puzzle'' to be a ''trick rhyme.'' Paul also does this in ''Bells and Whistles,'' Jane Krakowski's showstopper in Episode 3.
''The prima facie evidencel , oh, it's an avalanche
Will be expressly and indubitably proven circumstantial.''
Paul cleverly rhymes ''avalanche will'' with ''circumstantial.'' And he does this often through the season, and his wit knows no bounds.
For example: Miss Coldwell, the mistress of the orphanage (played by Kristin Chenoweth), sings about ''The Worst Brats in Town.''
Obviously, an homage to Mrs. Lovett's ''The Worst Pies in London.'' But he uses the same tune for her neighbor, Dooley Bright.
Bright, a butcher, also sings about ''The Worst Brats in Town,'' only he's referring to the bratwurst sausages in his shop. Genius! |
