    Also the fact that all the background images match the song and is inspired by the mafia activity at the time is incredible. Back then, there was no getting around it. You couldn’t be a musician and perform in anywhere without connections to the mafia and that didn’t stop until well after the 60s. My grandpa used to play bass and had connections to some too. Crazy. It’s so accurate and THE ANIMATION HOLY COW.

    LYRICS
    Folks, I'm goin' down to St. James Infirmary
    See my baby there
    She's stretched out on a long, white table
    She's so sweet, so cold, so fair
    Let her go, let her go, ohh bless her
    Wherever she may be
    She will search this wide world over
    But she'll never find another sweet man like me
    Now when I die, bury me in my straight-leg breeches
    Put on a box-back coat and a Stetson hat
    Put a twenty-dollar gold piece on my watch chain
    So you can let all the boys know I died standing pat
    Then give me six crap shooting pallbearers
    Let a chorus girl sing me a song
    Put a red hot jazz band at the top of my head
    So we can raise Hallelujah as we go along
    Folks, now that you have heard my story
    Say, boy, hand me over another shot of that booze
    If anyone should ask you
    Tell 'em I've got those St. James Infirmary blues

    This is from Betty Boop's Snow White. They used to play this (or a Carmen Miranda number who's name I've forgotten) every Saturday Night at midnight before the main feature of Rocky Horror Picture Show. This was in the 70s and early 80s at the Strand Theatre on Market Street in San Francisco. Loved that theater. Everybody would sing along with the movie and have a great time.

    So I just realized something incredible. As he’s singing, everything he’s saying is appearing in the background. When he says “bury me in my straight leg britches” you can see a couple skeletons in the back trying on pants and so on and so forth. Idk maybe I’m just dim for not noticing it sooner but I think it’s such an amazing small detail.
