Dames / Keep Young and Beautiful
Who writes the words and music
For all the girly shows?
No one cares, and no one knows
Who is the handsome hero
Some villain always frames?
But who cares if there's a plot or not
Where they've got a lot of dames!
What do you go for
Go see a show for?
Tell the truth
You go to see those beautiful dames
You spend your dough for
Bouquets that grow for
All those cute and cunning
Young and beautiful dames
Dames are temporary to you
Dames, you don't recall their names
Do you?
But their caresses
And home addresses
Linger in your mem'ry of those beautiful
In your mem'ry see those beautiful
In your mem'ry all those beautiful dames!
What cute about a little cutie?
It's her beauty, not brains
Old Father Time will never harm you
If your charm still remains
After you've grown old baby
You don't have to be a cold baby
Keep young and beautiful
It's your duty to be beautiful
Keep young and beautiful
If you want to be loved
Don't fail to do your stuff
With a little powder and a puff
Keep young and beautiful
If you want to be loved
If you're wise, exercise all the fat off
Take it off, off of here, off of there
If you're seen anywhere with your hat off
Have a permanent wave in your hair
Take care of all those charms
And you'll always be in some guy's arms
Keep young and beautiful
If you want to be
(Oh we wanna be)
If you want to be loved
Who writes the words and music
For all the girly shows?
No one cares, and no one knows
Who is the handsome hero
Some villain always frames?
But who cares if there's a plot or not
What do you go for
Go see a show for?
Tell the truth
You go to see those beautiful dames
You spend your dough for
Bouquets that grow for
All those cute and cunning
Young and beautiful dames
Dames are temporary flames to you
Dames, you don't recall their names
Do you?
Dames!
Keep young and beautiful
It's your duty to be beautiful
Keep young and beautiful
If you want to be loved!
Don't fail to do your stuff
With a little powder and a puff
Keep young and beautiful
If you want to be loved!
Those gorgeous dames
Are temporary playthings to you
They're all the same
You melt when they cling to you
Slim, trim, or curvy
Sweet, shy, or nervy
There is nothin' as divine as beautiful-
No sun can shine like beautiful
Bring on a line of beautiful
Dames, dames, dames, dames
Dames, dames, dames, dames-
Dames!
For all the girly shows?
No one cares, and no one knows
Who is the handsome hero
