The Battle of the Sexes |
Back in the garden of Eden |
That never needed weedin' |
Adam made himself a new straw hat |
But all that he was wearin' |
Eve just sat there starin' |
Sayin', «Adam, you can’t go out dressed like that» |
And that did it, blam-to-blam |
That’s when all the fun began |
That’s the day when all the men and women went to war |
Now, the battle of the sexes |
Runs from Babylon to Texas |
And they’ll fight, fight, fight forevermore |
Anthony, that mighty Roman |
Cleopatra’s hair was combin' |
She knew he was no mental acrobat |
He was a great romancer |
But he never should have answered |
When she asked him, «Does this dress make me look fat?» |
And that did it, blam-to-blam |
That’s when all the fun began |
That’s the day when all the men and women went to war |
Now, the battle of the sexes |
Runs from Babylon to Texas |
And they’ll fight, fight, fight forevermore |
Delilah said to Samson |
«You're so tall and dark and handsome |
My heart beats like it never gonna stop |
You are so hurly-burly |
Your hair so long and curly |
I just think I’ll take a little off the top» |
George Washington and Martha |
Sat before a glowing hearth |
Another soft, Virginia evening drifting by |
But as the room grew colder |
She asked him if she looked older |
And he said, «My dear I cannot tell a lie» |
And that did it, blam-to-blam |
That’s when all the fun began |
That’s the day when all the men and women went to war |
Now, the battle of the sexes |
Runs from Babylon to Texas |
And they’ll fight, fight, fight forevermore |
Oh, the battle of the sexes |
Runs from Babylon to Texas |
And they’ll fight, fight, fight forevermor |
