Alice Is At It Again

Alice Is At It Again - Noel Coward[00:00:00]

Written by:Coward[00:00:00]

Now I should like to sing you a song about a simple[00:00:00]

Country girl who always kept her eye on the future[00:00:06]

In a dear little village[00:00:18]

Remote and obscure[00:00:19]

A beautiful maiden resided[00:00:21]

As to whether or not[00:00:22]

Her intentions were pure[00:00:24]

Opinions were sharply divided[00:00:26]

She loved to lie[00:00:28]

Out 'neath the darkening sky[00:00:30]

And allow the night breeze[00:00:32]

To entrance her[00:00:33]

She whispered her dreams[00:00:35]

To the birds flying by[00:00:36]

But seldom received any answer[00:00:38]

Over the field and along the lane[00:00:43]

Gentle Alice would love to stray[00:00:46]

When it came to the end of the day[00:00:49]

She would wander away[00:00:53]

An heeding[00:00:55]

Dreaming her innocent dreams she strode[00:00:57]

Quite unaffected by heat or cold[00:01:00]

Frequently freckled or soaked with rain[00:01:03]

Alice was out in the lane[00:01:06]

Who she met there[00:01:10]

Every day[00:01:13]

Was a question[00:01:14]

Answered by none[00:01:16]

But she'd get there[00:01:18]

And she'd stay there[00:01:19]

'Til whatever she did[00:01:21]

Was undoubtedly done[00:01:23]

Over the field and along the lane[00:01:25]

Both her parents would call in vain[00:01:28]

Sadly sorrowfully they'd complain[00:01:32]

Alice is at it again[00:01:36]

Although that dear little village[00:01:44]

Surrounded by trees[00:01:45]

Had neither a school nor a college[00:01:47]

Gentle Alice acquired[00:01:49]

From the birds and the bees[00:01:50]

Some exceedingly practical knowledge[00:01:52]

The curious secrets that nature revealed[00:01:55]

She refused to allow to upset her[00:01:58]

But she thought[00:02:00]

When observing the beasts of the field[00:02:02]

That things might have been organized better[00:02:04]

Over the field and along the lane[00:02:11]

Gentle Alice would make up[00:02:15]

And take up[00:02:16]

Her stand[00:02:17]

The road was not exactly arterial[00:02:19]

But it led to a town nearby[00:02:22]

Where quite a lot of masculine material[00:02:24]

Caught her rolling eye[00:02:27]

She was ready to hitchhike[00:02:28]

Cadillac or motorbike[00:02:30]

She wasn't proud or choosy[00:02:31]

All she[00:02:34]

Was aiming to be[00:02:35]

Was a pinked up[00:02:36]

Pinked up[00:02:37]

Fly by night floozy[00:02:37]

When old rogers[00:02:38]

Gave her pearls as large as[00:02:39]

Nuts on a chestnut tree[00:02:41]

All she'd say was[00:02:43]

'Fiddle Di Dee[00:02:44]

The wages of sin will be the death of me[00:02:45]

Over the field and along the lane[00:02:48]

Gentle Alice's parents[00:02:51]

Would wait[00:02:53]

Hand in hand[00:02:54]

Her dear old white headed mother[00:02:57]

Wistfully sipping champagne[00:03:01]

Said we've spoiled our child[00:03:05]

Spared the rod[00:03:07]

Open up the caviar and say thank God[00:03:08]

We've got no cause to complain[00:03:10]

Alice is at it again[00:03:15]
