Take Back Your Mink |
| He bought me the fur mink five winters ago\nAnd the gown the following fall\nThen the necklace, the bag, the gloves, and the hat,\nThat was late '48 I recall\nThen last night in his apartment\nHe tried to remove them all\nAnd I said as I ran down the hall.\nTake back your mink\nTake back your pearls\nWhat made you think\nThat I was one of those girls?\nTake back the gown\nThe gloves and the hat\nI may be down\nBut I’m not flat as all that.\nI thought that each expensive gift you’d arranged\nWas a token of your esteem\nBut when I think of what you want in exchange\nIt all seems a horrible dream\nEek.\nSo take back your mink.\nTo from whence it came\nAnd tell them to go, Hollanderize it\nFor some other dame\nTake back your mink\nTake back your pearls\nWhat made you think\nThat I was one of those girls?\nI’m screaming:\nTake back the gown\nTake back the hat\nI may be down\nBut I’m not flat as all that.\nI thought that each expensive gift you’d arranged\nWas a token of your esteem\nBut when I think of what you want in exchange\nIt all seems a horrible dream\nEek!\nTake back your mink\nThose old worn out pelts\nAnd go shorten the sleeves\nFor somebody else.\nWell, wouldn’t you? |
