The Song Of The Prune - Frank Crumit[00:00:00]

La la la la[00:00:22]

La la la la[00:00:24]

Nowadays we often gaze[00:00:27]

On women over fifty[00:00:29]

Without the slightest trace[00:00:32]

Of wrinkles on their face[00:00:34]

Doctor's go and take their dough[00:00:37]

To make them young and nifty[00:00:39]

But Doctor's I defy[00:00:41]

To tell me just why[00:00:44]

No matter how young a prune may be[00:00:46]

It's always full of wrinkles[00:00:49]

We may get them on our face[00:00:51]

Prunes get them every place[00:00:54]

Prohibition worries us[00:00:56]

But prunes don't sit and brood[00:00:58]

For no matter how young a prune may be[00:01:01]

It's always getting stewed[00:01:04]

In the kingdom of the fruits[00:01:11]

The prune is snubbed by others[00:01:14]

And they are not allowed[00:01:16]

To mingle with the crowd[00:01:19]

Though they're never on display[00:01:21]

With all their highbrow brothers[00:01:24]

They never seem to mind[00:01:26]

To this fact they're resigned[00:01:29]

That no matter how young a prune may be[00:01:31]

It's always full of wrinkles[00:01:34]

Beauty treatments always fail[00:01:37]

They've tried all to no avail[00:01:39]

Other fruits are envious[00:01:42]

Because they know real well[00:01:44]

That no matter how young a prune may be[00:01:46]

Hot water makes them swell[00:01:49]

Baby prunes look like their dad[00:01:57]

But not wrinkled quite as bad[00:01:59]

Every day in every way[00:02:12]

The world is getting better[00:02:14]

We've even learned to fly[00:02:17]

As days go passing by[00:02:19]

But how about the poor old prune[00:02:22]

His life is only wetter[00:02:24]

No wonder he can't win[00:02:27]

In the awful stew he's in[00:02:29]

No matter how young a prune may be[00:02:32]

He's always full of wrinkles[00:02:34]

We may get them on our face[00:02:37]

Prunes get them every place[00:02:39]

Nothing ever worries them[00:02:42]

Their life's an open book[00:02:44]

But no matter how young a prune may be[00:02:47]

It has a worried look[00:02:50]

Prunes act very kind they say[00:03:02]

When sickly people moan[00:03:05]

But no matter how young a prune may be[00:03:07]

It has a heart of stone[00:03:10]
