They say about me

They say about me,

They say about me,

They say that I'm a scarecrow,

That I walk like some cheap dandy

And that though my legs are bandy

I move like a sleazy fox,

That I'm like a brontosaurus,

That my pointy nose is bigger,

That I'm not helped by my figure

And my mouth is like a box.

If I chat with Lou, with Pete or with John,

The others will talk about how I am

They analyze if my waistline is gone,

They watch if I come or stay there or scram.

They say a lot of things but

Most of them are pretty silly.

When they think of me then willy-

Nilly they all lose their head.

I know that many who will scorn my company will

Sigh for me and shiver when they think my love is their reward.

And more than one melts when I sigh and when I just give

Him a look he'll just be standing there and puffing like a Ford.

If I'm a sight, let's say it's so,

Though I'm not even sure of that,

But when it comes to love, I know,

That many a fool I have left flat.

Maybe they'll talk, maybe they'll say,

Maybe they'll hiss, maybe they'll bray

But many women wish they had

My ugly face, of which I'm glad.

And they won't say that I am fooled

Because by modesty I'm ruled.

That's how I am.

They don't say of me,

They don't say that I also

Have two eyes that are like dreaming,

Many other charms that seemingly

Cause many men to flip.

If I'm ugly, still I'm certain

That my skin's as sweet as candy,

Those who say my legs are bandy

Haven't seen me in a slip.

Men still criticize my voice when I talk,

My cough and my style, the way that I walk.
