paroles de chanson Robert Mitchum - Original Cast Recording

There must be something wrong with me
Cause' I don't find in the least sexy
All those pretty boys with their perfect bods
Prancin' around like Hollywood gods
Yet, everywhere that I care to look
In every movie and every book
I see, I see, I see those guys with their deltoids pumped
And their sex appeal has my libido stumped

As for me, I long for the days of Robert Mitchum
I know, he was a little beefy and soft
But, when he took it all off
He was bitchin'
As for me, I long for the days when guys
Didn't look like they spent all week at a gym
When skinny legs and love handles were in
At least a smidgen
Give me Robert Mitchum

Now, I'm not immune to the well known charms
Of a drop dead chest and some well toned arms
But a little flaw here and there makes it hard for me not to stare
Now, I'll never look like Marky Mark
But some people say I've a real big heart
It's true, it's true, oh god, I woulda been hot back then
Before the age of implants and calogens

As for me, I long for the days of Robert Mitchum
Though he smoked and did a lot of bad stuff, but...
When he acted real tough
He had me twitchin'
As for me, I long for the days when guys
Didn't drink bottled water, but bottles of gin
Or fret about the state of the skin
That's when I would ditch em
Give me Robert Mitchum

Does anybody remember him in "Cape Fear?"
Now that was a moving experience.
He was homicidally, sexually serious.

Bad to the core, and the little he wore
I'll never forget, and better yet
When his bedroom eyes came into view
You know he knew just what to do
A perfect ten back in the days of real men like...
Robert Mitchum
And I'm not alone

As for us, we long for the days of Robert Mitchum
When guys came in all sizes and shapes
Some could even get dates
And while we're dishin'
As for us, we long for days when guys weren't so young
Or tall, or thin, or perfectly done
Hell, let's be frank, so perfectly hung
A perfect ten back in the days of real men like...
Robert Mitchum
