The men up there don't like a lot of blabber,
They think a girl who gossips is a bore!
Yes, on land it's much preferred
For ladies not to say a word
And after all, dear, what is idle prattle for?
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation,
True gentlemen avoid it when they can!
But they dote and swoon and fawn
on a lady who's withdrawn,
It's she who holds her tongue who gets a man!

They like it big, they like it loud,
Maybe a little bit jazzy sometimes!
Mr. Pussycat, listen to me
You don't have to be good
But you had better be!
Maybe a little bit jazzy sometimes!
Mr. Pussycat, listen to me
You don't have to be good
But you had better be!
