                  You've turned yeller in yer old age, pal !!

                  Camille Saint-Saens wrote an opera called The Yellow Princess (Op.30)
                  Charles Griffes wrote a song called Symphony in Yellow (Op.3)

                  and....

                  well the splendid Reginald Hazeltine Bassett wrote the music for a film called The Yellow Passport
