Hello.

I believe that the Broadway play you're seeking is "A Year With Frog
and Toad" (2003).

A Playbill review indicates that the musical contains a song called
"Getta Loada Toad," which contains the lyrics "Toad looks funny in a
bathing suit."

'... "Getta Loada Toad," which is better known in my house as "Toad
looks funny in a bathing suit": The tune is joyous, and it builds into
an enjoyably delectable number.'

The CD of the cast recording includes a "32-page color booklet
complete with lyrics..." See:
http://www.psclassics.com/cd_frogandtoad.html

The CD is available from Amazon.com:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0001IN0LW/

Or you may order just the booklet with lyrics for $1.95 plus $3 shipping:

---------
search strategy:
"looks funny in a bathing suit"
"getta loada toad"

I hope this is the Broadway musical that you had in mind. If not,
please let me know via the "request clarification" feature. Thanks.

This show has just been released by MTI to be performed regionally.  VERY cute show.
