Bosom Buddies (From "Mame") 歌詞
Bosom Buddies (In the Style of Mame) (Demo Vocal Version) - ProSource Karaoke (專業卡拉ok)
We'll always be bosom buddies
Friends sisters and pals;
We'll always be bosom buddies
If life should reject you
There's me to protect you
If I say that your tongue is vicious
If I call you uncouth;
It's simply that who else but a bosom buddy
Will sit down and tell you the truth
Tho' now and again
I'm aware that my candid opinion may sting
Tho' often my frank observation might scald;
I've been meanin' to tell you for years
You should keep your hair natural like mine
If I kept my hair natural like yours I'd be bald
But darling
We'll always be dear companions
My crony
My mate;
We'll always be harmonizing
Orphan Annie and Sandy
Like Amos and Andy
If I say that your sense of style's
As far as off as your youth;
It's simply that who else but a bosom buddy
Will tell you the whole stinkin' truth
Each time that a critic has written
"Your voice is the voice of a frog "
Straight to your side to defend you I rush;
You know that I'm there ev'ry time
That the world makes and unkind
Remark
When they say
"Vera Charles is the world's greatest lush "
It hurts me
And if I say your fangs are showing
Mame pull in your claws
It's simply that who else but a bosom buddy
Will notice the obvious flaws
I feel it's my duty to tell you
It's time to adjust to your age;
You try to be "Peg O' My Heart"
When you're "Lady Macbeth "
Exactly how old are you Vera The truth
Well how old do you think
I'd say somewhere in between forty and the death
But sweetie
I'll always be Alice Toklas
If you'll be Gertrude Stein
And tho' I'll admit I've dished you
I've gossiped and gloated
But I'm so devoted
And if I say that sex and guts made you into a star
It's simply that who else but a bosom buddy
Will tell you how rotten you are
Just turn your bosom buddy
For aid and affection
For help and direction
For loyalty love and for sooth
Remember that who else but a bosom buddy
Will sit down and level
And give you the devil
Will sit down and tell you the truth
