Текст песни A Little Brains, A Little Talent - Gwen Verdon



Applegate: There's not a homewrecker on my staff better than you, Lola
But this fella is stubborn!
Lola: Ah, chief, you know I've got what it takes
Don't make me brag!
I took the zing out of the King of Siam
I took the starch out of the sails
Of the prince of Wales
There's no great art
Getting the heart of a man
On a silver platter
A little brains, a little talent
With an emphasis on the latter
I made mincemeat
Out of a sweet young farmer
I knocked the fight
Out of a knight
When I pierced his armor
And I'll bet, I could upset every male
In a Yale regatta!
A little brains, a little talent
With an emphasis on the latter
You've gotta know just what to say and how to say it
You've gotta know what game to play
And how to play it
You gotta stack those decks with a coupl'a extra
Aces
And this queen has her aces
In all the right places
I've done much more
Than that old bore,
Delilah
I took the curl out of the hair
Of a millionare
There is no trick
Getting some hick who is cool
Just a little warmer
A little talent, a little brains
With an emphasis on the former
Split up a home
Way up in Nome, Alaska
And wreck the life
Of every wife
Down in Madagascar
Ask me why weak men'll die for me
Strong men simply shatter
A little brains, a little talent
With an emphasis on the latter
You've gotta know just what to do
And how to do it
You've gotta know what tea to brew it
And how to brew it
You see the sign that said "George Washington once slept here"
Well though nobody spied him
Guess who was beside him?
Bring on that boy, he'll be a toy
To Lola
Just one more case she can erase
With that old boffolo
What's my plan?
Same as with every man
I'll use the standard platter
Plus a little this-a
And a little that-a
With an emphasis on the
On the latter!
