There ain’t nothin’ like a dame - from the musical ‘South Pacific’
only registered users can see external links
We got sunlight on the sand,
We got moonlight on the sea,
We got mangoes and bananas
You can pick right off the tree,
We got volleyball and ping-pong
And a lot of dandy games!
What ain't we got?
We ain't got dames!
We get packages from home,
We get movies, we get shows,
We get speeches from our skipper
And advice from Tokyo Rose,
We get letters doused with perfume
We get dizzy from the smell!
What don't we get?
You know darn well!
We have nothin' to put on a clean white suit for
What we need is what there ain't no SUBSTITUTE for...
There is nothin' like a dame,
Nothin' in the world,
There is nothin' you can name
That is anythin' like a dame!
We feel restless, we feel blue,
We feel lonely and in grief,
We feel ev'ry kind of feelin',
But the feelin' of relief
We feel hungry as the wolf felt
When he met Red Hiding-hood
What don't we feel?
We don't feel good!
Lots of things in life are beautiful, but brother,
There is one particular thing that is nothin' whatsoever
In any way, shape or form like any other.
There is nothin' like a dame,
Nothin' in the world,
There is nothin' you can name
That is anythin' like a dame!
Nothin' else was built the same,
Nothin' in the world
As the soft and wavy frame
Like the silhouette of a dame!
There is absolutely nothin' like a frame of a dame.
So suppose that dame and bride
Are completely free from flaws,
Or as faithful as a bird dog,
Or as kind as Santa Claus,
It's a waste of time to worry
Over things that they have not,
We're thankful for the things they got!
There is nothin' you can name
That is anythin' like a dame!
There are no books like a dame,
And nothin' looks like a dame.
There are no drinks like a dame,
And nothin' thinks like a dame,
Nothin' acts like a dame,
Or attracts like a dame.
There ain't a thing that's wrong with any man here
That can't be cured by pullin' him near
A girly, womanly, female, feminine dame!

Ha Ha said the clown - Manfred Mann
only registered users can see external links Ha! Ha! said the clown, has the king lost his crown, is the night being tight on romance. Ha! Ha! said the clown, is it bringing you down that you've lost your chance. Feeling low, gotta go, see a show in town. Hear the jokes, have a smoke, and a laugh at the clown. In a whirl, see a girl with a smile in her eyes. Never thought I'd be brought right down by her lies. In a trance, watch her dance to the beat of the drums. Faster now, sweating brow, I'm all the fingers and thumbs. Wonder why I hit the sky when she blows me a kiss. In a while run a mile, I'm regretting all this. Ha! Ha! said the clown, has the king lost his crown, is the night being tight on ROMANCE. Ha! Ha! said the clown, is it bringing you down that you've lost your chance. Time to go, close the show, wave the people good-bye. Grab my coat, grab my hat, look that girl in the eye. Where's your home, what's your phone number, stop fooling round. Could have died, she replied: "I'm the wife of the clown". Ha! Ha! said the clown, has the king lost his crown, is the night being tight on romance. Ha! Ha! said the clown, is it bringing you down that you've lost your chance. |

My back pages - The Byrds
only registered users can see external links Crimson flames tied through my ears Rollin' high and mighty traps Pounced with fire on flaming roads Using ideas as my maps "We'll meet on edges, soon," said I Proud 'neath heated brow Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now. Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth "Rip down all hate," I screamed Lies that life is black and white Spoke from my skull, I dreamed Romantic facts of musketeers Foundationed deep, somehow Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now. Girls' faces formed the forward path From phony jealousy To memorizing politics Of ancient history Flung down by corpse evangelists Unthought of, though, somehow Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now. A self-ordained professor's tongue Too serious to fool Spouted out that liberty Is just equality in school "Equality," I spoke their word As if a wedding vow Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now. In a soldier's stance, I aimed my hand At the mongrel dogs who teach Fearing not I'd become my enemy In the instant that I preach My existence led by confusion boats Mutiny from stern to bow Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now. Yes, my GUARD stood hard when abstract threats Too noble to neglect Deceived me into thinking I had something to protect Good and bad, I define these terms Quite clear, no doubt, somehow Ah, but I was so much older then I'm younger than that now. |
