Señorita Nina from Argentina knew all the answers [00:00:12]

Though her relatives and friends were perfect dancers [00:00:16]

She swore she'd never dance a step until she died [00:00:19]

She said I've seen too many movies [00:00:23]

And all they prove is too idiotic [00:00:26]

They all insist that South America's exotic [00:00:29]

Whereas it couldn't be more boring if it tried [00:00:32]

She added firmly that she hated [00:00:36]

The sound of soft guitars beside a still lagoon [00:00:39]

She also positively stated [00:00:43]

That she could not abide a southern moon [00:00:45]

She said I hate to be pedantic [00:00:49]

But I'm driven nearly frantic [00:00:51]

When I see that unromantic sycophantic lot of sluts [00:00:53]

Forever wriggling their guts [00:00:57]

It drives me absolutely nuts [00:01:00]

She refused to begin the Beguine [00:01:04]

When they requested it [00:01:08]

And she made an embarrassing scene [00:01:11]

If anyone suggested it [00:01:14]

For she detested it [00:01:17]

Though no one ever could be keener than little Nina [00:01:23]

On quite a number of very eligible men [00:01:27]

Who did the rhumba [00:01:30]

When they proposed to her she simply left them flat [00:01:32]

She said that love should be impulsive [00:01:36]

But not convulsive [00:01:40]

And syncopation had a discouraging effect [00:01:41]

On procreation [00:01:45]

And that she'd rather read a book and that was that [00:01:46]

[00:01:49]

She declined to begin the Beguine [00:01:55]

When they besought her to [00:01:57]

And language profane and obscene [00:02:00]

She cursed the man who taught her to [00:02:03]

She cursed Cole Porter too [00:02:07]

From this its fairly clear that Nina [00:02:12]

In her demeanour [00:02:15]

Was so offensive that [00:02:17]

When the hatred of her friends grew too intensive [00:02:19]

She thought she'd better beat it [00:02:22]

While she had the chance [00:02:23]

After some trial and tribulation [00:02:26]

She reached the station [00:02:30]

And met a sailor [00:02:32]

Who had acquired a wooden leg in Venezuela [00:02:33]

And so he married him because he couldn't dance [00:02:36]

There surely never could've been a [00:02:40]

More irritating girl than Nina [00:02:44]

They never speak in Argentina [00:02:47]

Of this degenerate bambina [00:02:50]

Who had the luck to find romance [00:02:54]

But resolutely wouldn't dance [00:02:58]

She wouldn't dance oh na [00:03:07]
