文本歌词

I've seen for days that you've got
The ways that must be checked
In you I never can detect
The slightest signs of intellect
Your mad on dances think of the chances you neglect
You never seem inclined to use your mind
And it's quite plain to see
That I'm the brains of the family
Take a lesson from me
I'd rather Charleston Charleston
Think of what you might be
I'd rather Charleston Charleston
I'm disappointed in you and your ways
I'm double jointed
If There's no sensation like syncopation
Will you let me know why
I'd rather Charleston Charleston
That's the sort of thing I would never do
So leave it behind and give your mind to something new
I'd rather Charleston Charleston Charleston with you
Your way of living soon will be giving me a pain
You just repeat that same refrain
You use your feet and not your brain
Something has got you
I don't know what you hope to gain
And after all I've done
It's not much fun to have a Sister who's
Got her brain in her dancing shoes
So take a lesson from me I'd rather Charleston
Charleston When you're older you'll see
I'd rather Charleston Charleston
The great improvements I looked for in you
I like improvements
If you make new plastic just like elastic
Say don't you ever keep cool I'd rather Charleston
Oh no that's the sort of thing silly people do
Hey haven't you read what Lincoln said in sixty two
Yeh what'd he say
I'd rather Charleston Charleston Charleston with you
Not me
