Monotonous (From 'New Faces of 1952') - - Eartha Kitt

Everyone gets into a dull routine

If they don't get a chance to change the scene

I could not be wearier

Life could not be drearier

If I lived in Siberia

I'll tell ya what I mean

I met a rather amusing fool

While on my way to Istanbul

He bought me the Black Sea

For my swimming pool

Monotonous

For thirty days salt air I sniffed

While I was shipwrecked and cast adrift

With a man who looked like Montgomery Clift

Monotonous

For what it's worth throughout the earth

I'm known as femme fatale

But when the yawn comes up like thunder brother

Take back your Taj Mahal

Jack Fath made a new style for me

I even made Johnny Ray smile for me

A camel once walked a mile for me

Monotonous monotonous

I could not be wearier

Life could not be drearier

If I lived in Siberia

Traffic has been known to stop for me

Prices even rise and drop for me

Harry S Truman plays bop for me

Monotonous monotone-eous

T S Elliott writes books for me

King Farouk's on tenterhooks for me

Sherman Billingsley even cooks for me

Monotonous monotonous

I could not be wearier

Life could not be drearier

If I lived in Siberia

Though I know I've acres of dough

I'm not sure of the amount

It might be exciting some day if I learned to count

Chian Kai-Shek sends me pots of tea

Gaylord Hauser sends me vitamin D

And furthermore Ike likes me

Monotonous monotonous

Monotonous
