Brush Up Your Shakespeare |
The girls today in society go for classical poetry |
So to win their hearts one must quote with ease |
Aeschylus and Euripides |
But the poet of them all |
Who will start 'em simply ravin' |
Is the poet people call |
The Bard of Stratford on Avon |
Brush up your Shakespeare |
Start quoting him now |
Brush up your Shakespeare |
And the women you will wow |
Just declaim a few lines from Othella |
And they’ll think you’re a hell of a fella |
If your blond won’t respond when you flatter 'er |
Tell her what Tony told Cleopatterer |
If she fights when her clothes you are mussing |
What are clothes? |
Much ado about nussing |
Brush up your Shakespeare |
And they’ll all kow-tow |
With the wife of the British ambessida |
Try a crack out of Troilus and Cressida |
If she says she won’t buy it or tike it |
Make her tike it, what’s more 'As You Like It' |
If she says your behavior is heinous |
Kick her right in the Coriolanus |
Brush up your Shakespeare |
And they’ll all kow-tow, thinkst thou? |
And they’ll all kow-tow, odds Bodkins |
All kow-tow |
