The Sadder-But-Wiser Girl - Iggie Wolfington/Robert Preston

No wide-eyed eager wholesome

Innocent sunday school teacher for me

That kinda girl spins webs no spider ever

Now listen boy

A girl who trades on all that purity

Merely wants to trade my independence for her security

The only affirmative she will file refers

To marching down the aisle

No golden glorious

Gleaming pristine goddess no sir

For no diana do I play fun

I can tell you that right now

I snarl

I hiss

How can ignorance be compared to bliss

I spark

I fizz for the lady who knows what time it is

I cheer

I rave for the virtue I'm too late to save

The sadder but wiser girl for me

No bright-eyed blushing

Breathless baby-doll baby no sir

That kinda child ties knots no sailor ever knew

I prefer to take a chance

On a more adult romance

No dewy young miss who keeps resisting

All the time she keeps insisting

No wide-eyed wholesome

Innocent female no sir

Why she's the fisherman

I'm the fish you see plop

I flinch

I shy when the lass

With the delicate air goes by

I smile

I grin when the gal

With a touch of sin walks in

I hope

And I pray for hester to win just one more A

The sadder but wiser girl's the girl for me

The sadder but wiser girl for me
