Lawns grow plush in the hinterlands 
It's the perfect little setting for the one night stands 
Now the drapes are drawn and the lights are out 
It's the time to put in practice what you've dreamed about 
She can show you what you must do 
To be more like people better than you [Chorus:] 
Amateur Hour goes on and on 
When you turn pro you know she'll lets you know 
Amateur Hour goes on and on 
When you turn pro you know 
She tells you so 
Girls grow tops to go topless in 
While we sit and count the hairs that blossom from our chins 
Our voices change at a rapid pace 
I could start a song a tenor and then end as bass 
Choose your partners everyone 
If you hesitate, the good ones are gone [Chorus] 
Dance, laugh, wine, dine, talk and sing 
But those cannot replace what is the real thing 
It's a lot like playing the violin 
You cannot start off to be 
Yehudi Menuhin [Chorus]
