The Lusty Month of May
Tra-la! It's May!
The lusty month of May
That lovely month when everyone goes blissfully astray
Tra-la! It's here!
That shocking time of year
When tons of wicked little thoughts
Merrily appear
It's May! It's May!
That gorgeous holiday
When every maiden prays that her lad
Will be a cad
It's mad! It's gay!
A libelous display
Those dreary vows that everyone takes
Everyone breaks
Everyone makes divine mistakes
The lusty month of May!
Whence this fragrance wafting through the air?
What sweet feelings does its scent transmute?
Whence this perfume floating everywhere?
Don't you know? It's that dear forbidden fruit
Tra-la-la-la-la, the dear forbidden fruit
Tra-la-la-la-la (tra-la-la-la-la)
Tra-la-la-la-la (tra-la-la-la-la)
Tra-la (tra-la)
Tra-la (tra-la)
Tra la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la (tra-la-la-la-la)
It's May! The lusty month of May
The darling month when everyone throws self-control away (tra-la-la)
It's time to do a wretched thing or two
And try to make each precious day one you'll always rue
It's May! It's May! (Tra-la, tra-la)
The month of "yes you may"
The time for every frivolous whim
Proper or im
It's wild! (Tra-la)
It's gay! (Tra-la)
Blot in every way (tra-la-la)
The birds and bees with all of their vast
Amorous past
Gaze at the human race aghast
(The lusty month of May)
Tra-la! It's May!
The lusty month of May
That lovely month where everyone goes blissfully astray
Tra-la! It's here!
That shocking time of year (tra-la-la)
When tons of wicked little thoughts
Merrily appear
It's May! (It's May!) It's May! (It's May!)
The month of great dismay
When all the world is brimming with fun
Wholesome or un
Woo!
It's mad! It's gay!
A libelous display
Those dreary vows that everyone takes
Everyone breaks
Everyone makes divine mistakes
The lusty month of May!
The lusty month of May
That lovely month when everyone goes blissfully astray
Tra-la! It's here!
That shocking time of year
When tons of wicked little thoughts
Merrily appear
It's May! It's May!
That gorgeous holiday
When every maiden prays that her lad
Will be a cad
It's mad! It's gay!
A libelous display
