Too God For The Average Man

Too Good for the Average Man - Blossom Dearie (布洛森·迪儿莉)[00:00:00]

Written by:Lorenz Hart/Richard Rodgers[00:00:02]

When russia was white[00:00:12]

It was white for the classes[00:00:13]

And black for the masses[00:00:15]

Unfortunate asses[00:00:17]

All wealth belonged to few[00:00:18]

When England was Tudor[00:00:22]

The king and his cronies[00:00:25]

Had cocktails at Tony's[00:00:27]

The poor had baloneys[00:00:29]

And that's how England grew[00:00:31]

Sing lah and huzzah for the poor folks[00:00:35]

As long as the poor folks are your folks[00:00:38]

Finer things are for the finer folk[00:00:43]

Thus society began[00:00:47]

Caviar for peasants is a joke[00:00:51]

It's too good for the average man[00:00:55]

Supper clubs are for the upper folk[00:01:00]

Packed like sardines in a can[00:01:05]

Through the smoke you get your check and choke[00:01:09]

It's too good for the average man[00:01:13]

Each poor man has a wife he must stick to[00:01:18]

Men of fashion can be cocky[00:01:22]

To be caught in flagrante delecto[00:01:27]

Is much too good for the average monkey[00:01:31]

All night parties drinking like a lord[00:01:36]

Fit into our social plan[00:01:41]

Waking in the alcoholic ward[00:01:45]

Is too good for the average man[00:01:49]

Fancy nerves are for the fancy class[00:02:04]

Since psychiatry began[00:02:08]

Neurostania isn't for the mass[00:02:13]

It's too good for the average man[00:02:17]

Rich old age can blossom like a rose[00:02:22]

Plastic surgeons have a plan[00:02:26]

Cutting up your face to spite your nose[00:02:31]

It's too good for the average man[00:02:35]

Lots of kids for a poor wife or dandy[00:02:40]

Girls of fashion can be choosy[00:02:45]

Birth control and the modus operandi[00:02:49]

Are much too good for the average floozy[00:02:54]

Psychoanalysts are all the world[00:02:59]

Rich men pay them all they can[00:03:03]

Waking up to find that he's a girl[00:03:08]

It's too good for the average man[00:03:12]
