A cup of hot tea
Can't compare to hot cocoa.
Tiny marshmellows!
Tiny marshmallows
Perhaps dollops of whipped cream
On a cocoa sea
On a cocoa sea
I would dive to the bottom
And never come up!
(With apologies to Tex Ritter: "If the ocean were whiskey, and I was a duck, I'd dive to the bottom and never come <hiccough>... I meant to say, 'up.'")
And never come up
With such insolence again!
Go do your homework!
Go do your homework,
and find out why the earth spins.
The earth doesn't spin?
The earth doesn't spin?
And I suppose it's flat, too
Are you serious?
Are you serious
about learning to Charleston?
Can you shimmy yet?
Are you serious?
I mean, really, really serious?
No, no, not really.
No, no, not really
I wouldn't wear gold lame
Tights to the office
Tights to the office?
Are we to wear poodle skirts
To the opera?
To the opera,
to the dance, and now I go
off to France, again.
Off to France again
Oh, but only in my dreams
I'd love to return
I'd love to return
if only I'd been there yet.
I might be there still.
I might be there still
If not for my finances
Ah France, ah romance.
Ah France, ah romance,
If I could go there and dance,
I would not disco.
I would not disco
in Frisco or elsewhere now
that I can cha cha.
That I can cha cha
Is undisputed - but can
I can-can? I can.
I can-can? I can.
Learned it at the Moulin Rouge
I was quite the star
I was quite the star
In the constellation of
Sagittarius.
Sagittarius
A fire sign like Aries.
Ram I surely am.
