Life Upon the Wicked Stage |
| Why do stage struck maidens clamor |
| To be actin' in the drammer? |
| We’ve heard say |
| You are gay |
| Night and day. |
| Oh, go 'way! |
| We drink water from a dipper, |
| You drink champagne from a slipper. |
| Tho' it seems cruel to bust |
| All your dreams, |
| Still I must; |
| Here’s the truth I tell you: |
| Life upon the wicked stage |
| Ain’t ever what a girl supposes; |
| Stage door Johnnies aren’t raging |
| Over you with gems and roses. |
| When you let a feller hold your hand (which |
| means an extra beer or sandwich), |
| Ev’rybody whispers: «Ain't her life a whirl?» |
| Ruining your reputation, |
| I have played around |
| The one night trade around |
| A great big nation: |
| Wild old men who give you jewels and sables |
| Only live in Aesop’s Fables. |
| Life upon the wicked stage |
| Ain’t nothin' for a girl. |
| Though we’ve listened to you moan and grieve, you |
| Must pardon us if we do not believe you, |
| There is no doubt |
| You’re crazy about |
| Your awful stage! |
| I admit it’s fun |
| To smear my face with paint, |
| Causing ev’ryone |
| To think I’m what I ain’t, |
| And I like to play a demi-mondy role |
| With soul! |
| Ask the hero does he |
| Like the way I lure |
| When I play a hussy |
| Or a paramour, |
| Yet when once the curtain’s down |
| My life is pure, |
| And how I dread it! |
| Life upon the wicked stage |
| Ain’t ever what a girl supposes, |
| Stage door Johnnies aren’t raging |
| Over you with gems and roses. |
| If some gentleman would talk with reason |
| I would cancel all next season. |
| Life upon the wicked stage |
| Ain’t nothin' for a girl! |
| You’d be back the season after! |
