Pick-A-Little / Goodnight Ladies Lyrics
Alma:
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little,
cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more
Alma and Ethel:
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little,
talk a little, cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more
All the ladies:
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little,
talk a little, cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more
Maud:
Professor, her kind of woman doesn't belong on any committee.
Of course, I shouldn't tell you this but she advocates dirty books.
Harold:
Dirty books?!
Alma:
Chaucer
Ethel:
Rabelais
Eulalie:
Balzac!
Maud:
And the worst thing
Of course, I shouldn't tell you this but-
Alma:
I'll tell.
Ethel:
The man lived on my street, let me tell.
Eulalie:
Stop! I'll tell.
She made brazen overtures to a man who never
had a friend in this town till she came here.
Alma:
Oh, yes
That woman made brazen overtures
With a gilt-edged guarantee
She had a golden glint in her eye
And a silver voice with a counterfeit ring
Just melt her down and you'll reveal
A lump of lead as cold as steel
Here, where a woman's heart should be!
Eulalie, Ethel, Maud, Alma, Mrs Squires:
He left River City the Library building
But he left all the books to her
Alma:
Chaucer
Ethel:
Rabelais
Eulalie:
Bal-zac!
Ladies:
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little,
cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little,
cheep cheep cheep, talk a lot, pick a little more
Pick a little, talk a little, pick a little, talk a little,
Cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep
Cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep
Cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep cheep
Pick a little, talk a little, cheep!
