Look at what it did to Anthony It made a "mark" out of Anthony If love could do that to Anthony What chance have I with love?
Look at what it did to Samson 'Til he lost his hair he was brave If a haircut could weaken Samson They could murder me with a shave
Louie Number Fifteen, King of France They say he suffered with each romance If love kicked him in the royal pants What chance have I An ordinary guy What chance have I with love?
Look at what it did to Adam From that bite he could not escape If an apple could finish Adam They could knock me off with a grape
Miss Lucrezia Borgia, deep in sin She poisoned her lovers when they dropped in If they wound up with a Mickey Finn What chance have I An ordinary guy What chance have I with love?
Look what love did for Reno It put Reno on the map When a woman goes to Reno It's because some man is a sap
Tommy Manville's love is not returned He sells asbestos and he has learned That with asbestos he still gets burned What chance have I An ordinary guy What chance have I with love?

A waiter, who notices that Aaron and Casey are not having a good time, performs a rousing crowdpleaser to lighten the mood.
View Lyrics
Yet I find, as I wait on my tables And serve them their baskets of bread I can't help but think As they pick out a drink Of what I would order instead...
I'd order love Delicious, well-seasoned and rare I'd order love A big enough portion to share Bring me all of the heartache A small side of woe That flavor of longing That I long to know I don't need a menu Just someone to care for my heart Yes, I'd order love There's no better dish to start
I'd order love That's spicy and steaming and hot Oh, I'd order love So juicy - it hits the spot I crave nights full of passion All drizzled with lust Breakfast in bed Is an absolute must Then bring on the marriage But don't top it off with divorce Yes, I'd order love It's the very best second course
I'm tired of always observing Loving couples, all dreamy and sweet For years, I've been patiently waiting When's it gonna be my time to eat? This lack of attention's unnerving I fear that I'm losing my grip
If cupid keeps up this substandard service I'm screwing him out of his tip! He don't get no tip! Big finish!
I'd order love Appetizer, main course and dessert - ball change! Yes, I'd order love Even if it was peppered with hurt 'Cause at least I could savor The way that it feels To not eat alone For each one of my meals
There's a lot on the menu - I'd have something else if I could But I'd order love 'Cause there's nothing else earth That tastes so good! Mmm, it tastes so good Oh so very good So good, so good

Mendel makes a clumsy and offbeat marriage proposal to Trina.
View Lyrics
MENDEL I love you dear. I think you're swell. You're never near me close enough to tell If I'm delightful or not.
I need your wrist. I praise your thigh. There's not a guy, There's not a piece of paper, There's not a man in pants Who could love you the same as I!
Oftentimes, lovers are crazy people. Sometimes they kill each other. Just like a biblical brother Did to his biblical brother Back in biblical times.
TRINA Biblical times?
MARVIN Biblical times?
MENDEL Uh, biblical times.
Oh, those' biblical times! I love your eyes. I love your face. I want you by my side to take my place If I get sick or detained.
Don't brush your hair, you?re perfect. Don't start to cry. There's not a guy, There's not a horse or zebra, There's not a giant man Who could love you the same as I!
Forget that giant man, He won't love you the same as I! I'm not a giant man, But I'll love you until, Love you until, I die!

Oscar, a selfish impresario, tries to convince his colleagues that he will regain success even after four flops.
View Lyrics
(sung) I rise again Full size again, And give those doubting Thomases a walloping surprise again! I sneer at them, I jeer at them, I thumb my nose and bite my thumb and bare my royal rear at them!
With my back up against the wall, With the wolves yapping at my heels, With the noose tightening ‘round my neck, That's the time I know how really living feels.
With the wall up against my back, With the water rising to my chin, Chained and bound tight inside a sack, That's the plight that I'm delighted in!
For I have powers like Aladdin's Genie did. I do escape tricks better than Houdini did. From the black of my cul-de-sac, Do I crack and fall? No – I attack! With my back up against the wall…
OLIVER & OWEN Listen boss, you've got to use your brain. Everyone you owe will meet the train
OSCAR I Shine again, All is mine again, A fighter rising from the canvas at the count of nine - -
OLIVER & OWEN Nine? The count is ten! You're out! The drums of doom are knocking. Your theatre and your offices The bankers will be locking.
OSCAR I spit at them, Spray flit at them. I'll face those grim Goliaths with my sling shot And I’ll hit at them.
With my back up against the wall, Angry birds pecking with their beaks Or submerged, sealed inside a tomb – That challenge brings the roses to my cheeks.
So rally 'round me now, my musketeering men. We’ll turn that raging lynch mob into cheering men! From the false reports of my demise, Like the phoenix right before their eyes With my back up against the wall…
OLIVER & OWEN With his back up against the wall…
OSCAR I rise again!
OLIVER & OWEN Ah-ah-ah
ALL THREE I (He'll) rise again!

The first nickel I ever earned, I keep in a little silver frame. It's how I gave my company a name, Reminding me how very far I came!
I was a Maker of the silhouettes Who made a small improvement- A little book of silhouettes That simulated movement. Well, people seemed to like it, Soon the money's going clink! And I'm buffalo nickel photoplay, inc!
I go from Silhouettes to photos. I invent a small projector, And soon, I'm making movies And they're calling me director!
An industry is dawning And I'm standing on the brink- Mister buffalo nickel photoplay, inc!
Life shines from the shadow screen Comical, yet infinitely true. People love to see what people do, Here where everyone is someone new.
Such tales from the shadow screen! Little men who never get the breaks, Fighting on till something fin'lly takes- What a lovely movie it all makes!
Well, business is booming I'm happy to say. I just made a contract To film for pathe A series of chapters That end in suspense- Each week, see what's next For another five cents!
And I am Waking every morning Filled with such anticipation! I frame the sea, I frame the sky. And this is my vacation.
I shake your hand, I kiss your hand, I buy you all a drink! And maybe if you chance to see A movie that was made by me Remember when the name goes by That's ash-k-e-n-a-z-y
The baron, now american, Who happened once to think Of silhouette and flicker book And movies as they're meant to look And buffalo nickel photoplay, inc! Action!

Always I can't refuse them Always my feet pursue them Long as they've got a bosom I woos 'em
I'm confessing a confession And I hope I'm not verbose When I'm not close to the kiss that I cling to, I cling to the kiss that's close
As I'm more and more a mortal I am more and more a case. When I'm not facing the face that I fancy. I fancy the face I face.
For Sharon I'm carin', But Susan I'm choosin' I'm faithful to whos'n is here. When I'm not near the girl I love, I love the girl I'm near.

You'll never have to fetch the milk Or walk the dog at early dawn There's no -"Get up- you're late for work!" While you rest in the pearly dawn You're never bored by politics You're privileged to miss a row Of tragedies by Sophocles And diatribes by Cicero
Your brother's wife will never come On Sunday noon to bring to you Her little son who plays the lute, Her little girl to sing to you
You can commit you little "sins" And relatives won't yell "Fie!" You needn't take the annual trip To the oracle at Delphi You snore and swear and stretch and yawn In this, your strictly male house
The only way that sinners go to Heaven Is in the jail house!

Juno laments that she cannot find love in Olympus or Earth.
View Lyrics
The cock is chasing the chicken The pea wakes up, pee-wee-wee The cat is taking a lickin' But nobody's taking me.
Nobody wants to own me And I object Nobody wants to phone me Even collect.
The leopard's chasing the leopard The chimp, some chap chimpanzee The sheep is chasing the shepherd But nobody's chasing me. Nobody! Nobody's chasing me.
The flood is chasing the levy The wolf is out on a spree The Ford is chasing the Chevvy But nobody's chasing me.
The bee is chasing petunias The queen is chasing the bee The worm is chasing the lettuce But nobody's chasing me.
Each night I get the mirror From off the shelf Each night I'm getting queerer, Chasing myself.
Ravel is chasing Debussy The avid chases the pee The gander's chasing the goosey But nobody's goosing me. Nobody! Nobody's chasing me.
The la is chasing the lama Papa is chasing Mama Monseur is chasing Madame But nobody's chasing moi.
The dove, each moment, is bolder The lark speaks muy petite Triston is chasing Isolde But nobody's chasing me.
Although I may be Juno, Believe it or not, I got a lot of you-know And you-know-what.
The snake, with passion, is shaking The pooch is chasing the flea The moose his love call is making But nobody's making me. Nobody! Nobody's chasing me!

A woman is blasting her unfaithful lover.
View Lyrics
There he goes as usual, my man Tearing my heart apart He's made my life a mess I've got to do this I guess
Goodbye Joe, from here I kiss you Goodbye Joe, I hope I don't miss you
If you had been on the square And had treated me fair And we?d not had a tiff If you had not said I should go and jump right off The nearest cliff
If you had stayed off the make And you never had taken To coming home stiff If I had not smelled perfume With a nasty unfamiliar whiff
I'm gonna miss you, baby Things could've been teriff Ah, what's the diff?
If you had not had the cheek To stay out for a week Saying, "Back in a jiff" If you were not such a two-timing guy
If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't
If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't
But you have And you were And you went And you did And so goodbye
If I had not seen you Take Geraldine on the lake In your flat-bottomed skiff If you were not out with Sue With your arms around her bare midriff
If I had not seen you pen sexy letters To Gwen in your own hieroglyph If you had not left me home When had two seats for South Pacif
I'm gonna miss you, baby You were too darn prolif Ah, what's the diff?
If you were not such a hound Who when game was around Always picked up the sniff If you were not such a two-timing guy
If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't
If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't
But you were And you have And you went And you did And so, goodbye
If when I asked where you'd been You had not cliffed my chin With a beautiful biff Hey, if I had not always found purple Lipstick on your handkerchief
If you had not told me lies And then looked in my eyes With a smile beautif If when I caught you with Kate You had not said, ?It?s of no signif?
I'm gonna miss you, baby And I could get specif Ah, what's the diff?
If the best years of my life Weren't spent as your wife With no marriage certif If you were not such a two-timing guy
If you weren't If you hadn't
If you didn't If you weren't If you hadn't If you didn't
But you had And you were And you have And you went And you did
And so goodbye!

Mimi Paragon, a ship captain, rants and raves about embarrassing travelers and their awkward behaviors overseas.
View Lyrics
Personally I've yet to find that longitude and latitude can educate those scores of monumental bores Who travel in groups and herds and troupes Of various breeds and sexes Till the whole world reels... to shouts and squeals... And the clicking of Roliflexes.
Why do the wrong people travel, travel, travel When the right people stay back home? What compulsion compels them and who the hell tells them To drag their clans to Zanzibar, instead of staying quietly in Omaha.
The Taj Mahal and the Grand Canal And the sunny French Rivera Would be less oppressed if the Middle West Would settle for somewhere rather nearer. Please do not think that I criticize or cavel At a genuine urge to roam.
But why, oh why, do the wrong people travel When the right people stay back home And mind their business When the right people stay back home And eat hot doughnuts When the right people stay back home I sometimes wonder Why the right people stay back home.
Just when you think romance is ripe it rather sharply dawns on you That each sweet serenade is for the tourist trade Any attractive native type who resolutely fawns on you Will give as his address, American Express There isn't a rock between Bangkok and the beaches of His-pianola That does not recoil from suntan oil and the gurgle of Coca-Cola
Why do the wrong people travel, travel, travel When the right people stay back home? What explains this mass mania to leave Pennsylvania And clack around like flocks of geese. Demanding dry martinis on the isles of Greece In the smallest street, where the gourmets meet, They invariably fetch up And it's hard to make them accept a steak that isn't served rare and smeared with ketchup.
Millions of tourists are churning up the gravel While they gaze at St. Peter's Dome,
But why, oh why do the wrong people travel when the right people stay back home with Cinerama when the right people stay back home with all that Kleenex when the right people stay back home I merely asking why the right people stay back home
What peculiar obsessions inspire those processions Of families from Houston Tex with all those cameras around their necks? They will take a train Or an aeroplane For an hour on the Costa Brava, And they'll see Pompeii On the only day When it's up to its ass in molten lava! It would take years to unravel, ravel, ravel Every impulse that makes them wanna roam.
But why oh WHY do the wrong people travel When the right people stay at home." And Yogie Bear-O When the right people stay back home Won't someone tell me Why the right people stay back home.

Carmen, a producer, reminds her estranged daughter Bambi (real name Elaine) that her main goal is to draw a profit from shows.
View Lyrics
BAMBI Bambi
CARMEN Who pisses away a lot of her hard earned bucks [pause] Elaine
BAMBI Bambi
CARMEN But let's face it your coloratura sucks Bambi, Though it breaks your mother's heart, Forget about the part, It's time for you to know Why I really backed this show.
You ask me for my motives Well, you needn't be so smart, It's a business. It isn't making history, It isn't making art, It's a business.
Shaw and Ibsen take 'em away, And don't bother me with Molière, Those Russians never pay.
So go on criticize me, Please, proceed with your attack, It's a business
I put one million in And I expect two million back, It's a business
So, what crime have i committed If I'm putting up a fight? It's a business
And I want those paying suckers Out there giving me the business Every night
(spoken) Am I getting through to you, Elaine?
BAMBI I'm sorry mother, but to me the theatre is a temple.
CARMEN (spoken) What so it should only be filled on shabbat? Give me a hand fellas. [they clap] Very funny. You know what I mean. Back me up.
(sung) The not for profit theatres Don't need to turn a buck That's not business
GUYS That's not business
CARMEN So give them Lysistrata And I wish them lots of luck I do business
GUYS She does business
CARMEN Dorky schmorky Money misspent You won't survive Yom Kippur You'll never get through Lent
I once knew a producer Whose pretension knew no bounds In the business
GUYS In the business
CARMEN He mounted Samuel Beckett I don't mean it like it sounds It was business
GUYS It was business
CARMEN So now he's down the crapper While I'm working in my prime It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN And the shows I do do business 'Cause I really know my business And I'm giving them the business, honey All the time
BAMBI But what about the great poets of the stage?
CARMEN (spoken) Honey i put on the ice man cometh and nobody cameth
(sung) To stage hands To the dressers To musicians in the pit It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN The owner of this premiss cleans up if we're a hit He's in business
GUYS He's in business
CARMEN Union workers don't work for free Hey Harry on the spotlight Blink twice if you agree
See!
I'm not devoid of culture But my feet are on the floor It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN I do the Kama Sutra With a Richard Rogers score That's good business
GUYS That's good business
CARMEN Yes, green's my favorite color, And I don't mean on the grass It's a business
GUYS It's a business
CARMEN And the shows I do do business, Yes I'm good at doin' business, And if you don't like my business sweetie,
Blow it out your—
GUYS Business. It's a business
CARMEN Business

Edie regrets failing to succeed in New York City, whereas her mother Edith regrets nothing and takes no blame for Edie’s shortcomings.
View Lyrics
EDIE (spoken) You had a rich husband; you should've stayed with him.
EDITH (spoken) I had a perfect marriage... beautiful children... terribly successful marriage, I never had a fight in my life.
EDIE (spoken) Ha!
EDITH (spoken) I had a very, very happy, satisfying life.
EDIE (spoken) Can't be done. You can't have your cake and eat it, too. You can't.
EDITH (spoken) Ohhhh yes you can. I most certainly did have my cake and eat it, down to the last crumb.
(sung) What good is cake You have but never eat? I never could Deny myself a sweet, So I sliced my life And licked my knife And ate the cake I had.
EDIE (spoken) Can't be done, I'm telling you...
EDITH Two perfect sons I thoroughly enjoyed An absent spouse And cats to fill the void, And the tri-state's best Accompanist Oh yes, I ate the cake I had.
EDIE (spoken) I'll probably be an old maid until I die. I'll sit around with cats the rest of my life.
EDITH (spoken) When are you gonna learn, Edie? You're in this world, you know! You're not out of the world!
(sung) The days are gone When money grew on trees. The money tree Came down with elm disease. But at my age, ducks, For my two bucks I'll eat the cake I have And like it. I'll eat the cake I have.
EDIE (spoken) I think the saddest thing was my not marrying. During the war, my best friend, she was a nurse with the Red Cross... she met somebody overseas in a hospital. A Marine. Lost both of his legs at Iwo Jima. Romance was inevitable, really, given the situation. But I couldn't travel. Mother wasn't well during the war, you see.
EDITH (spoken) Gerald Gettys worshipped you - and those two nice Rockefeller fellas-
EDIE (spoken) They were horrible! Horrible!
EDITH (spoken) You just didn't want to get married. Now it's all blamed on me.
EDIE (spoken) I missed out on everything.
EDITH Gripe. Groan. Point the famous finger. Life is disappointing, Put the parent through the wringer.
EDIE (spoken) I met a Count, in Greenwich Village. He was a poet and a playwright, and he said, "Edith, I want to make an honest woman out of you." I thought that was very decent.
EDITH (spoken) He didn't have a nickel in his trousers! Not a nickel!
EDIE (spoken) Mother despised him. Gave him the pink slip. To think, I coulda been a Countess - Countess Edith!
EDITH Enough with all Your celebrated loves. You had two hands. You could have modeled gloves. Is it my fault that Your cake fell flat? That you're unmarried, Bald and fat?
EDIE (spoken) Sometimes I think I have the saddest life...

After Michael criticizes Agnes’ expensive shopping habits, the wife contemplates being a saucy divorcee.
View Lyrics
That pompous, pompous, pompous, pompous ass!! Now's the time for that hat. The one I've been saving for all these years.
An eighty-five dollar hat! What do you think of that! Thirteen feathers of the pigeon family! And a bird of paradise plume!
I hid this hat for four whole years. In this great big box at the foot of the bed - Right here in this very same room! But now, my spouse, it's out of the box, And I'm gonna tell you what; If I am going to go to pot - This pot is gonna be HOT!
Say - who's that racy, middle-aged lady, Peeking underneath her veil? Why, don't you know? That's Flaming Agnes. (Her husband up and left her)
Who's that pale, available matron? Underneath the peacock's tail? Why, can't you guess? That's Flaming Agnes. (Emancipated lady!)
Used to find her sittin' in the kitchen. Mousy housewife was her name. But the day her husband up and left her - Agnes started to flame!
Now they say that nothing can save her - And they blame her husband for the blazing shame of Flaming Agnes! (vulgar dance) Fresh!
Used to find her tendin' to the kiddies; Up to here in Cream of Wheat! But the day her husband up and left her, That's the day that Agnes turned the heat one! Now she flames from night till early mornin'! While he slaves to raise the alimony He must pay, to Flaming Agnes!

I truly believe That i am a modern day Carmen In spite of the fact I do not habla espanol

I'm not the type who's ready For datin' someone steady I'm everybody's girl
On Sunday night it's Danny On Monday, maybe Nanny I'm everybody's girl
There's a point to my behavior Which is: Smart girls always share their riches
So, if your heart succumbs Don't let it You're certain to regret it All others, come and get it I'm everybody's girl.
I could never be a cowhand's girl
La la la la la la
And you wanna know why?
ALL: Why?
SHELBY: I just can't keep my calves together.
I'm everybody's girl Some old greek called Aristotle said it: If you got it, why not spread it? So don't go rattling any sabres Exerting any labors Just share me with the neighbors I'm everybody's girl
In case your passion rages, (I'm in the yellow pages) I'm... Girl.
You won't be disappointed I'm also double-jointed I'm everybody's girl Though it leaves a lot of fellas Cursin' I'm a person Needs disbursin'
And so to reaffirm my status It's absolutely gratis To use my apparatus I'm everybody's girl
Men and me are like pianos. When they Get upright, i feel grand!
Everybody's girl!

So he tells me you boys are rollers at the mill. That's wonderful. Of course, I don't actually know what rollers do, but hey, I hardly know what Harold does over there. It's all steel to me.
HAROLD Look at her. She's a piece of Dresden china. She'd break into a million pieces!
VICKI God, I love that man But lately he's working too hard I keep on telling him how we Should take a few weeks in Maui And we'll feel the breeze and sample the poi And go see Don Ho and I'll say "Oh boy, how I love you, Harold" I hit the jackpot with Harry
He's a gem - he's a beaut He looks cute in a suit and he loves me to boot I'm telling you You gotta love that man
Love that man I love that man I love that man!
MEN Love that man You gotta love that man You really gotta love That man

A seemingly introverted woman reveals that there's more to her than meets the eye.
View Lyrics
I sit here at my desk And no one knows Not twenty minutes ago I was not wearing clothes I was in someone's arms, in someone's bed Oh what the thought of it does to my head
If it's true a bird makes music When her heart takes wing This bird is singing Miss byrd is singing I'm singing I'm in love But I'm not saying a thing
Uh uh Oooh oooh
Down in apartment a The super's aptly named Last week I went to the basement More hours than i claimed He says i'm super too He calls me hot I show those basement apartments a lot
Back at work i'm crisp and fresh Reliable Miss Byrd Seals are dancing in my flesh But I don't say a word
I'm showing penthouse c As i begin I still feel his hands sliding over my skin My nipples start to throb Inside my bra That's when I start to go la-dah-di-dah
If you've never felt the lift A little lunch can bring This bird is singing Miss Byrd is singing I'm singing I'm on fire But i'm not saying a thing
No no no no oh oh oh...
This is a floor thru five I call it more a six The broken kitchenette tiles they will fix
Lots of girls who first seems shy Have secrets I have found If you think I'm special I suggest you look around
That little office temp Who seems so dumb How come a trip to mcdonald's Is making her hum?
And Mrs. Smith in sales Who's turning grey Why is she smiling that curious way?
If it's true the drabbest songbirds Come alive in spring The birds are singing Miss Byrd is singing I'm singing I'm in love But I'm not saying a thing
No no no no no no no no
Mum's the word
La la la la Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard...oo-wee
La la la la... Shh.....

The Mad Hatter raves on about how she wants to rule Wonderland.
View Lyrics
The old Hatter is gone But the Hat must go on Worn by me, is that understood?
So shut up and tow the line, While I redefine How this all will be mine.
I have a dream, It's got a full head of steam!
What is true what is not Can both change in a shot And people, me, I couldn't care less.
'Cause in two seconds flat Livin' under my hat Is the strategy for success.
I will look the other way When you want to play Something more than croquet. You catch my drift? My little personal gift!
I'm the Mad Hatter Come and follow me, this is it. The Mad Hatter, All you gotta do is submit.
And if you don't my friend, Well then in the end, There'll be nothing left to defend. Know what I mean? When you are facing the Queen.
Uppercase, double-spaced Everyone gets a taste, And a brand new leather hat band.
But to participate, Let me reiterate You must first put me in command.
I'm the wonder, understand, Under Wonderland, Put the reigns in my hand. I'll do the rest, As soon as you've acquiesced!
I'm the Mad Hatter Offering a little bit more. The Mad Hatter, Giving you what you're looking for.
I am your best worst case For the choice you face, And the fastest rat in the race! It's me or the queen And her serene guillotine.
There is nothing I won't do, There is nothing too taboo, I will lie, I will cheat, I will track you down And then hit delete tout suite!
So sweetie let me repeat... I'm the Mad Hatter, Lend allegiance while you still can, The Mad Hatter More than just a Hat with a plan.
I am where you belong, The right kind of wrong, And I'll still be going real strong!
The bottom line Is everything will be fine. As all the planets align, It's gonna be so divine. When all of this will be MINE!!

We like the fashion don’ts and not the dos We read the comics and I throw away the news Cityfolks laugh at our K-mart clothes But we got our own style and we got out own nose
12 step programs make me yawn But I could 2 step all night long Pink flamingos on my lawn But, don’t call us trailer trash, we live in a mobile home
You can always keep me down on the farm Cause I’ve always like a man with a half tan arm A pickup truck with over-sized tires make me weak in the knees And sets my heart on fire
Cheese fries, wise guys, demolition derbies Stir fries, nice guys do nothing fer me Never cut out gourmet recipes, We prefer the cuisine at the tasty freeze
We like cars with lots of chrome We can make art out of Styrofoam We ain’t got no cellular phone But, don’t call us trailer trash, We live in a mobile home

The cabbie Hildy Esterhazy tries to seduce the sailor Chip and brags about her talents.
View Lyrics
'Cause I can bake, too, on top of the lot, My oven's the hottest you'll find. Yes, I can roast too, My chickens just ooze, My gravy will lose you your mind. I'm a brand new note On a table d'hote, But just try me? la carte. With a single course You can choke a horse. Baby, you won't know where to start! Oh, I'm an hors d'oeuvre, A jelly preserve, Not in the recipe book, And what's more, baby, I can cook!
Baby, I'm cookin' with gas. Oh, I'm a gumdrop, A sweet lollipop, A brook trout right out of the brook, And what's more, baby, I can cook!
Some girls make wonderful jivers, Some girls can hit a high "C", Some girls make good taxi drivers, But what a genius is me. I'd make a wonderful jiver, I even hit a high "C", I make the best taxi driver, I rate a big Navy "E"!
'Cause I can fry, too, on top of the heap, My Crisco's as deep as a pool. Yes, I can broil, too, My ribs get applause, My lamb chops will cause you to drool. For a candied sweet Or a pickled beet, Step up to my smorgasbord. Walk around until You get your fill. Baby, you won't ever be bored! Oh, I'm a pat? A marron glac? A dish you will wish you had took. And what's more, baby, I can cook!!

Look at what it did to Anthony It made a "mark" out of Anthony If love could do that to Anthony What chance have I with love?
Look at what it did to Samson 'Til he lost his hair he was brave If a haircut could weaken Samson They could murder me with a shave
Louie Number Fifteen, King of France They say he suffered with each romance If love kicked him in the royal pants What chance have I An ordinary guy What chance have I with love?
Look at what it did to Adam From that bite he could not escape If an apple could finish Adam They could knock me off with a grape
Miss Lucrezia Borgia, deep in sin She poisoned her lovers when they dropped in If they wound up with a Mickey Finn What chance have I An ordinary guy What chance have I with love?
Look what love did for Reno It put Reno on the map When a woman goes to Reno It's because some man is a sap
Tommy Manville's love is not returned He sells asbestos and he has learned That with asbestos he still gets burned What chance have I An ordinary guy What chance have I with love?
