Lyrics Let Me Entertain You - Milton Rosenstock, Karen Moore, Jule Styne

Let Me Entertain You

Let me entertain you
Let me make you smile
Let me do a few tricks
Some old and then some new tricks
I’m very versatile
And if you’re real good
I’ll make you feel good
I’d want your spirit to climb
So let me entertain you
We’ll have a real good time
Yes sir!
We’ll have
A real good time!
Hello!
Hello everybody!
My name is Gypsy Rose Lee — what’s yours?
Mr. Conductor, if you please!
So, let me entertain you
And we’ll have a real good time, yes, sir!
We’ll have
A real good time!
Gypsy Rose Lee
Pick up your apples girls and back to the trees!
Bon soir, monsieur et monsieur!
Je m’appelle Gypsy Rose Lee
And that concludes my entire performance in French
I’ve been too busy learning Greek
Where were you last night?
Some men accused me of being an ecdysiast!
Do you know what that means?
Do you?
Do you?
Oh, you do!
Aha!
He’s embarrassed!
Don’t be embarrassed… I like man without hair!
An ecdysiast is one who or that which
Sheds its skin!
In vulgar parlance: a stripper!
But I’m not a stripper!
At these prices — I’m an ecdysiast!
And if you’re real good
I’ll make you feel good
I want your spirit to climb
Let me entertain you
And well have a real good time, yes, sir!
We’ll have
A real good time!
