Don't Talk, Just Sing (2007 Digital Remaster) - Nancy Wilson (南希·威尔森)[00:00:00]
If you're noticing my lack of conversation[00:00:11]
If you wondered why I haven't said hello[00:00:14]
It's not due to any lack of concentration[00:00:17]
And I know what phrases would be apropos[00:00:20]
But the management when they booked me[00:00:26]
They looked me up down and up down and said[00:00:29]
There a little clause in your contract[00:00:34]
Which we trust that you and all your agents read[00:00:37]
It's a simple little clause with out an[00:00:42]
If or and or but[00:00:44]
Which states[00:00:47]
That the party of the first part[00:00:49]
If and when she is not actually engage[00:00:52]
In the art of singing[00:00:55]
Is to strictly keep her big mouth shut[00:00:58]
I am disturbed quite naturally so[00:01:05]
I feel[00:01:07]
I still think it would be very nice[00:01:09]
If I were aloud to[00:01:10]
They said there will be no complaining[00:01:17]
Your act will be entertaining[00:01:20]
And all the applause will make the rafters ring[00:01:22]
Your no bob hope dear don't be a d**e dear[00:01:26]
Don't talk[00:01:30]
Just sing[00:01:32]
We have interviewed all the locals[00:01:34]
They want you to stick to vocals[00:01:36]
There only one singing talker and that's Bing[00:01:38]
He's still the loner since you're no groaner[00:01:42]
Don't talk just sing[00:01:46]
Now actors want to dance and dancers[00:01:50]
Want to sing and singers want to yak yak yak[00:01:53]
Just be cordial and be gracious be anything but loquacious[00:01:59]
And perhaps we'll book you back[00:02:03]
With a humor you mustn't wrestle[00:02:06]
Leave all the jokes to Jessal[00:02:09]
You know why he talks if you had heard him sing[00:02:11]
You'll earn your loot dear remaining mute dear[00:02:15]
Now don't talk just swing[00:02:19]
But I've got things to say I love the Albee play[00:02:23]
And Bernstein thrills me at the Met[00:02:26]
And there are rumors I must smother[00:02:31]
Earl Wilson is not my brother[00:02:36]
Though we've had a tete a tete a tete a tete[00:02:41]
What is the problem[00:02:53]
I apologize[00:02:58]
May we continue[00:03:00]
You will play[00:03:02]
Talk talk talk they insist is folly I am safer with[00:03:06]
Hello Dolly[00:03:10]
If they wanted elocution they would bring[00:03:11]
Shelly Berman or how about that[00:03:15]
Or may be Alan Bergman[00:03:17]
Or Milton Berle or Alan King[00:03:19]
Don't talk[00:03:23]
Just sing[00:03:25]
Yak yak yak[00:03:33]
