A Little Brains - A Little Talent Lyrics

[LOLA]

I took the zing out of the King of Siam

I took the starch out of the sails

Of the Prince of Wales

It's no great art, gettin' the heart of a man

On a silver platter

A little brains-a little talent

With the emphasis on the latter!

I made mince-meat out of a sweet young farmer!

I knocked the fight out of a knight

When I pierced his armor

And I'll bet, I can upset every male

In a Yale regatta!

A little brains-a little talent

With the emphasis on the latta!

You gotta know just what to say and how to say it

You gotta know what game to play and how to play it

You gotta stack those decks with a couple-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 millionaire

There's no trick gettin' some hick who is cool

Just a little warmer

A little brains-a little talent

With the emphasis on the former!

Split up a home, way up in Nome, Alaska!

And wrecked 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 the emphasis on the latter!

You gotta know just what to do and how to do it

You gotta know what tea to brew and how to brew it

You've seen the sign that says George Washington once slept here

Well tho' nobody spied him

Guess who was beside him?

Bring out that boy, he'll be a toy to Lola

Just one more case she can erase with that old boffola

What's my plan. same as with any man

I'll use the standard platter

Plus a little this-a-and a little that-a

With the emphasis on the latter!
