The Creation of Man
Peacocks! Sink me! Think ye, sir, how those feathered males love to flaunt their tails! Stallions! Zounds, sir! Hounds sir! Stags! Of the goosie and the gander, sir Which gender is the grander, sir To render total candor, sir, the spendour is the male's! Be an example to your sex Give your boot a dapper strap And it's smarter if your garter has some snap! Cravats should be flounced about our necks Though I do not mean to scrap Any eunuch knows his tunic has to flap! Now, strip the shirt! And pipe the skirt! Embroider those lapels! Be the king of the beasts in pastels! La, but someone has to strike a pose And bear the weight of well-tailored clothes And that is why the Lord created men
Strut, sir! What, sir? Roosters do! He who wears a coxcomb will never fail Bucks! Bulls! More, sir! Boars, sir! Rams! Of the nanny goat and billy, sir Whose beard is fully wooly, sir? Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com It's bully for the billy for he's willy-nilly male!
Sir, be a lion-hearted prig Let me see that sleeve take flight! In the summer, let my cummerbund have bite! Be bold! When it's cold, slap on that wig Draw your breeches in quite tight Even more so, and your torso will ignite Now drape your cape! And puff your cuff! I'll let my waistcoat swing! And the jungle will bow to its king! La, but someone has to strike a pose And bear the weight of well-tailored clothes And that is why the Lord created men
Adam was the gentleman in Eden Though his body was admired You will grant the adding of a fig leaf was inspired If you're out to make a splash, cheri, Do know your haberdashery! Buttons, buckles, ruffles and lace Represent the human race!
La, but someone has to strike a pose And bear the weight of well-tailored clothes Each species needs a sex that's fated To be highly decorated That is why the Lord created men
