OT -- I need a short witty congratulatory statement for mid-school play

[Roleysmom]

I've asked family and friend for ideas and gotten nowhere so now it's time to turn to this sharp and funny group for help. DH's Aunt is a middle school art teacher who is in charge of the scenery for the annual spring play. This year it's Oklahoma. We want to take out an ad in the ad book to congratulate her and her student crew. I want something a little more creative then "break a leg" and "congratulations" and possibly related to the scenery or to the theme of the play. I'm coming up with nothing. Any ideas?

ooooooooooooooklahoma, where the scenery brightens up the play
and the waving wheat can sure look sweet
when "susie" and her students work all day
oh, i, every night my honey lamb and i
sit alone and view
a play or two
with susie's amazing-looking sky...
we know that susie created this land
and the scenes she created are grand
And when we say
Yeeow! Ayipioeeay!
We're only sayin'
You're doin' fine,
Susie,
SUSIE, O.K.



There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
There's a bright golden haze on the meadow
The corn is as high as an elephant's eye,
An' it looks like it's climbin' clear up to the sky.

Oh, what beautiful scenery,
Oh, what a beautiful play.
I got a beautiful feelin'
That Susie made it that way.


ok, not so much short...

maybe just the last part of the second song.
