The Deepest Shelter In Town

The Deepest Shelter in Town - Florence Desmond

Don't run away mister

Oh stay and play mister

Don't worry if you hear

The sirens go though

I'm not a lady

Of the highest virtue

I wouldn't dream of letting

Anything hurt you

And so before you go

I think you ought to know

I got a cozy flat

There's a place for your hat

I'll wear a pink chiffon negligee gown

And do I know my stuff

But if that's not enough

I've got the deepest shelter in town

I've got a room for two

A radio that's new

An alarm clock

That won't let you down

And I've got central heat

But to make it complete

I've got the deepest shelter in town

Every modern comfort

I can just guarantee

If you hear the siren call

Then it's probably me

And sweetie to revert

I'll keep you on the alert

I won't even be wearing a frown

So you can hang around here

Until the all cleared

In the deepest shelter in town

Now honey I don't sing

Of an anderson thing

Climbing in one

You look like a clown

But if you came here to see

Why Sir John would agree

I've got the deepest shelter in town

Now Mr Morrison

Says he's getting things done

And he's a man of the greatest renown

But before it gets wrecked

I hope hell come and inspect

The deepest shelter in town

Now I was one of the first

To clear my attic of junk

But when it comes to shelters

Now a days it's all bunk

So honey don't get scared

It's there to be shared

And you'll feel like

A king with a crown

So please don't be mean

Better men than you have been

In the deepest shelter

The neetest shelter

The deepest shelter in town
