Try To Learn To Love |
| Ln kindergartens |
| In country or town |
| Our education begins |
| Like little Spartans |
| Were taught to crush down |
| The inclination to sin |
| When we change to gentle adolescence |
| Things get rather strained |
| Theres a strange, peculiar effervescence |
| No one has explained |
| First you learn to spell |
| A little bit |
| Then, if you excel |
| A little bit |
| Other things as well |
| A little bit |
| Come your way; |
| Though the process may be slow to you |
| Knowledge of the world will flow to you |
| Steadily you grow a little bit |
| Day by day; |
| Though you’re too gentle, sentimental, In fact, quite a dreary bore |
| Though you’re aesthetic, apathetic |
| To all men but Bernard Shaw |
| Use the velvet glove |
| A little bit |
| Emulate the dove |
| A little bit |
| Try to learn to love a little bit more |
| Verse 2 (not used in this recording) |
| The art of wooing |
| I’m firmly resolved |
| For men is terribly crude |
| To be pursuing |
| Is not so involved |
| As having to be pursued |
| Doubts and fears |
| Make women work much faster |
| Though they’re frail and weak |
| Taking years |
| Successfully to master |
| Feminine technique |
| Refrain 2 (not used in this recording) |
| First you droop your eyes |
| A little bit |
| Then if you are wise |
| A little bit |
| Register surprise |
| A little bit |
| If he’s bold |
| Stamp your foot with some celerity |
| Murmur with intense sincerity |
| That his immature temerity |
| Leaves you cold |
| But when you get him |
| You must let him |
| And whisper sweetly |
| Indiscreetly |
| He’s the boy that you adore |
| Use the moon above |
| A little bit |
| Emulate the dove |
| A little bit |
| Try to learn to love a little bit more |
