|
The average unmarried female |
|
Basic'lly insecure |
|
Due to some long frustration |
|
May react |
|
With psychosomatic symptoms |
|
Difficult to endure |
|
Affecting the upper respiratory tract |
|
In other words, |
|
Just from waiting around |
|
For that little band of gold |
|
A person can develop a cold |
|
You can spray her wherever you figure |
|
The streptococci lurk |
|
You can give her a shot |
|
For whatever she's got |
|
But it just won't work |
|
If she's tired of getting the fish-eye |
|
From the hotel clerk |
|
A person |
|
Can develop a cold |
|
The female remaining single |
|
Just in the legal sense |
|
Shows a neurotic tendency |
|
See note: |
|
Note: Chronic organic syndromes |
|
Toxic and hypertense |
|
Involving the eye, |
|
The ear and the nose and throat |
|
In other words, |
|
Just from worrying |
|
Whether the wedding is on or off, |
|
A person |
|
Can develop a cough |
|
You can feed her all day |
|
With the Vitamin A |
|
And the Bromo Fizz |
|
But the medicine never |
|
Gets anywhere near |
|
Where the trouble is |
|
If she's getting a kind |
|
Of name for herself |
|
And the name ain't 'his' |
|
A person |
|
Can develop a cough |
|
And further more |
|
Just from stalling |
|
And stalling and stalling |
|
The wedding trip |
|
A person |
|
Can develop La grippe |
|
When they get on a train |
|
For Niag'ra |
|
And she can hear church bells chime |
|
The compartment is air conditioned |
|
And the mood sublime |
|
Then they get off at Saratoga |
|
For the fourteenth time |
|
A person |
|
Can develop La grippe |
|
La grippe, La post nasal drip |
|
With the wheezes |
|
And the sneezes |
|
And a sinus that's really a pip! |
|
For a lack of community property |
|
And a feeling she's getting too old |
|
A person |
|
Can develop |
|
A bad, bad cold! |
