|
Be helpful to the shyman, |
|
But be wary of the slyman oh baby, |
|
Be guidance to the blindman, |
|
And be thankful to the kind man oh baby, |
|
Be scintillating, aggravating, penetrating, over rating, |
|
Baby don't you know, |
|
Be hostess with the mostest to |
|
Whoever comes the closest, |
|
Oh baby don't you know. |
|
Be faithful to the true man, |
|
Sympathetic to the blue man oh baby, |
|
Be dwarf against the tall man oh baby, |
|
Be a giant against the small man oh baby. |
|
Be scrutinizing, tantalizing, appertizing, full moon-rising, |
|
Baby don't you know, |
|
Be mistress with a history of mystery and twistery, |
|
Oh baby don't you know. [Chorus] |
|
Stand up, stand up, stand up and be yourself, |
|
Stand up, stand up, don't be nobody else, |
|
Cos me well you see, |
|
I don't need nobody else. |
|
Be beauty for the plain man, |
|
But be sane for the insane man, |
|
Oh baby don't you know, |
|
Be dirty for the clean man, |
|
But be shirty for the obscene man |
|
Oh baby don't you know |
|
Be understanding, undemanding, hand in hand happy landing, |
|
Baby don't you know, |
|
Be harem, scarem, grin and bare em, |
|
Wash and wear em, do or dare em, |
|
Oh baby don't you know. [Chorus Repeat] |
|
Be beauty for the plain man, |
|
And be sane for the insane man, |
|
And be faithful to the true man, |
|
Sympathetic to the blue man, |
|
Oh baby don't you know, |
|
Be helpful to the shyman, and be wary of the slyman |
|
Be guidance to the blindman, and be thankful to the kindman, |
|
Oh baby don't you know, |
|
Be mistress with a history of mystery and twistery, |
|
Oh baby don't you know, |
|
Be hostess with the mostess to whoever comes the closest, |
|
Oh baby don't you know. [Chorus Repeat] |
|
Stand up, stand up, stand up.... |
|
Cos me, well you see |
|
I'll never find nobody else.... |
|
Cos me, well you see |
|
I'll never find nobody else, |
|
I'll never find nobody else, |
|
I'll never find nobody else, |
|
Like you - no no. |
