Musical limericks no.9

Last week, 'Whittaker' rendered the entire symphony orchestra into limericks.  The muse is illusive this week, but here's one for the kitchen section of the orchestra:-

Dry-cleaning blues


A statuesque girl on percussion
Once borrowed a dress from a Russian,
The dress was acrylic,
The label Cyrillic,
But it shrank, and she ended up blushin’.

Musical Limericks no.1 (flute, oboe, clarinet)
Musical Limericks no.2 (bassoon)
Musical Limericks no.3 (trumpet, horn)
Musical Limericks no.4 (Piper, by James Beaton)
Musical Limericks no.5 (tuba, trombone)
Musical Limericks no.6 (saxophone)
Musical Limericks no.7 (violin, viola)
Musical Limericks no.8 (cello, double bass, timpani)
