No sweet and pure angelic lass for me | |
That kinda gal can spin a web, you see | |
She trades on wholesome innocence galore | |
But it's my independence that she's trading for | |
The only affirmative she will file | |
Refers to marching down the aisle | |
No golden, glorious, gleaming pristine goddess, no sir! | |
For no Diana do I play faun, I can tell you that right now | |
I snarl, I hiss | |
How can ignorance be compared to bliss? | |
I spark, I fizz | |
For the lady who knows what time it is | |
I cheer, I rave | |
For the virtue I'm too late to save | |
The sadder but wiser girl for me | |
No bright-eyed, blushing, breathless baby-doll baby, no sir! | |
That kinda child ties knots no sailor ever knew | |
I prefer to take a chance | |
On a more adult romance | |
No dewy young miss who keeps resisting | |
All the time she keeps insisting | |
No wide-eyed, wholesome, innocent female | |
Why, she's the fisherman, I'm the fish, you'll see | |
I flinch, I shy | |
When the lass with the delicate air goes by | |
I smile, I grin | |
When the gal with a touch of sin walks in | |
I hope and I pray | |
For Hester to win just one more 'A' | |
The sadder but wiser girl for me | |
No giggling ice cream soda drinker | |
Out to hook you line and sinker | |
No honey throated beckoning siren | |
I plug my ears and I grab my oars and I flee | |
I jeer, I boo | |
At the puritan hearted ingenue | |
I yearn, I long | |
For the woman whose Pop says "What went wrong?” | |
I root and I clap | |
For the dame in the gownless evening strap | |
The sadder but wiser girl's the girl for me | |
The sadder but wiser girl for me |
No sweet and pure angelic lass for me | |
That kinda gal can spin a web, you see | |
She trades on wholesome innocence galore | |
But it' s my independence that she' s trading for | |
The only affirmative she will file | |
Refers to marching down the aisle | |
No golden, glorious, gleaming pristine goddess, no sir! | |
For no Diana do I play faun, I can tell you that right now | |
I snarl, I hiss | |
How can ignorance be compared to bliss? | |
I spark, I fizz | |
For the lady who knows what time it is | |
I cheer, I rave | |
For the virtue I' m too late to save | |
The sadder but wiser girl for me | |
No brighteyed, blushing, breathless babydoll baby, no sir! | |
That kinda child ties knots no sailor ever knew | |
I prefer to take a chance | |
On a more adult romance | |
No dewy young miss who keeps resisting | |
All the time she keeps insisting | |
No wideeyed, wholesome, innocent female | |
Why, she' s the fisherman, I' m the fish, you' ll see | |
I flinch, I shy | |
When the lass with the delicate air goes by | |
I smile, I grin | |
When the gal with a touch of sin walks in | |

For Hester to win just one more ' A' | |

For the woman whose Pop says " What went wrong?" | |
I root and I clap | |
For the dame in the gownless evening strap | |
The sadder but wiser girl' s the girl for me | |
The sadder but wiser girl for me |
