How embarrassing.

Paul Vance, the lyricist for the early 60’s hit "Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini", died earlier this week.  His passing was noted by the Associated Press.

This came as a surprise to the other Paul Vance — the one who really wrote the lyrics to the novelty hit (and who has collected millions of dollars in royalties from it).

The widow of the exposed (dead) imposter stated the obvious:

"If this other man says he did it then my husband’s a liar, or he’s a liar"

She’s standing by her (dead) man, but it must be kind of awkward to know that the "little lie" he told her many many years ago (probably when they were courting) is untrue.
