I'd Rather Charleston |
I’ve seen for days that |
You’ve got the ways that |
Must be checked |
In you I never can detect |
The slightest signs of intellect |
You’re mad on dances |
Think of the chances |
You neglect |
You never seem inclined |
To use your mind |
And it’s quite plain to see |
That I’m the brains of the family |
Take a lesson from me |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston? |
Think of what you might be |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston? |
I’m disappointed |
In you and your ways |
I’m double-jointed |
There’s no sensation |
Like syncopation |
Will you let me know why? |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston? |
That’s the sort of thing I would never do |
So leave it behind |
And give your mind |
To something new |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston |
Charleston with you |
Your way of living |
Soon will be giving |
Me a pain |
You just repeat that same refrain |
You use your feet and not your brain |
Something has got you |
I don’t know what you |
Hope to gain |
And after all I’ve done |
It’s not much fun |
To have a sister who’s |
Got her brain in her dancing shoes |
Take a lesson from me |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston? |
When you’re older, you’ll see |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston? |
The great improvements |
I looked for in you! |
I like improvements |
They make new plastic |
Just like elastic |
Say, don’t you ever keep cool? |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston? |
That’s the sort of thing silly people do |
Say, haven’t you read |
What Lincoln said |
In '62? |
I’d rather Charleston |
Charleston |
Charleston with you |
