Camelot: The Lusty Month of May

The Lusty Month of May - Julie Andrews/Camelot Ensemble/Original Broadway Cast of Camelot

Tra la it's May the lusty Month of May

That lovely month when everyone goes blissfully astray

Tra la it's here that shocking time of year

When tons of wicked little thoughts merrily appear

It's May It's May

That gorgeous holiday

When every maiden prays that her lad will be a cad

It's mad it's gay alive a lust display

Those dreary vows that everyone takes everyone breaks

Everyone makes divine mistakes

The Lusty Month of May

What sweet feelings does it's scent transmute

Don't you know it's that dear forbidden fruit

It's May the lusty month of May

That darling month when everyone throws self-control away

It's time to do a wretched thing or two

And try to make each precious day one you'll always rue

It's May it's May

The month of "Yes you may"

The time for every frivolous whim proper or im-

It's wild it's gay depraved in every way

The birds and bees with all of their vast amorous past

Gaze at the human race aghast

The Lusty Month of May

Tra la it's May

The lusty Month of May

That lovely month when everyone goes blissfully astray

Tra la it's here that shocking time of year

When tons of wicked little thoughts merrily appear

It's May it's may

The month of great dismay

When all the world is brimming with fun wholesome or un-

It's mad it's gay alive a lust display

Those dreary vows that everyone takes everyone breaks

Everyone makes divine mistakes

The Lusty Month of May
