Frank's Problem


Frank DeCaro was 20 minutes late for his own radio show today. I was his guest at the top of the show, so I was waiting for him. But Frank is so fun to be around that it doesn't matter. He's a hoot. He's actually late most of the time. Frequent listeners of his show know that they play a "Frank's late again" reel full of his ridiculous excuses dubbed over Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time." His co-host and foil, Doria Biddle scolds him, and the listeners are treated to their favorite flamboyant hero getting a talk from his "Tough Love Lesbo." Frank asked me to write an opening number for their Oscars pre-show. I love it when Frank gives me a songwriting challenge!
