Jerry:  ...with lyrics by Ira Gershwin and book by Moss Hart, starred 
Gertrude Lawrence.  A favorite of mine.

Perhaps Stephen Sondheim's parody of the song, written for Leonard 
Bernstein's 70th birthday, fits even better:

Complained, "I'm in this dreadful bind.
I feel for Leonardo--
God, genius is so hard--oh,
You cannot make up your mind."
