Bernstein: Wonderful Town, Act 1: "One Hundred Easy Ways to Lose a Man" (Ruth) - Sir Simon Rattle/Kim Criswell

Composed by：Leonard Bernstein

Girls are you constantly bothered

By the cloying attentions of the male sex

Well heres the solution for you

Get ruth sherwoods new bestseller

One hundred easy ways to lose a man

Chapter one

Now the first way to lose a man

You've met a charming fellow and you're out for a spin

The motor fails and he just wears a helpless grin

Don't bat your eyes and say what a romantic spot were in

Just leap out crawl under the car

Say it's the gasket and fix it

In two seconds flat with a bobby pin

Thats a good way to lose a man

He takes you to a baseball game

You sit knee to knee

He says the next man up at bat will bunt you'll see

Don't say oooh what's a bunt

This games too hard for little me

Just say bunt are you nuts

With one out two men on base

And a left-handed batter coming up

You'll walk right into a

Triple play just like it happened in

The fifth game of the world series in 1923

Thats a sure way to lose a man

A sure sure sure sure way to lose a man

A splendid way to lose a man

Just throw your knowledge in his face

Hell never try for second base

Ninety-eight ways to go

The third way to lose a man

The life-guard at the

Beach that all the girlies adore

Swims bravely out to save

You through the oceans roar

Don't say oh thanks I would

Have drowned in just one second more

Just push his head under water and yell

Last one in is a rotten

Egg and race him back to shore

Thats a swell way to lose a man

You've found your perfect mate

And it's been love from the start

He whispers you're the one to who I give my heart

Don't say I love you too my dear let's never never part

Just say I'm afraid you've made a grammatical error

It's not to who I give my

Heart it's to whom I give my heart

You see with the use of the preposition

To who becomes the indirect object

Making the use of whom imperative which

I can easily show you by drawing a simple chart

Thats a fine way to lose a man

A fine fine fine fine way to lose a man

A dandy way to lose a man

Just be more well-informed than he

You'll never hear o promise me

Just show him where his grammar errs

Then mark your towels hers and hers

Yes girls you too can lose your man

If you will use ruth sherwoods plan

One hundred easy ways to lose a man
