When You Wore a Tulip
Mister Kelly, if I may,
Remind you to remember the day Of horseless carriages,
And divorceless marriages.
Dear Miss Garland, I presume
That in your memory you've enough room
To reach infinity, Or that vicinity.
My heart booms Like it had a shot of adrenaline.
Your heart booms At the thought of old lace and crinoline.
So hold your hats, for here we go
To the dear dead days when a girl's best beau
Had his heart in it,
As he went to the spinet,
And sang to her this charming serenade;
When you wore a tulip,
A sweet yellow tulip,
And I wore a big red rose,
When you caressed me,
It was then heaven blessed me,
What a blessing no-one knows.
You made life cheery
When you called me dearie,
It was down where the blue grass grows.
Your lips were sweeter than julip
When you wore a tulip
And I wore a big red rose.
When you wore a tulip,
Yes, you wore a yellow tulip,
And I, and I wore a rose,
A big fat rose!
When you caressed me,
'Twas then heaven blessed me,
What a bless, what a bless,
What a blessing no-one knows.
You made life cheery
When you called me dearie,
It was down where the blue grass grows.
Your lips were sweeter than julip
When you wore a tulip
And I wore a big red rose.
Remind you to remember the day Of horseless carriages,
And divorceless marriages.
Dear Miss Garland, I presume
That in your memory you've enough room
To reach infinity, Or that vicinity.
My heart booms Like it had a shot of adrenaline.
Your heart booms At the thought of old lace and crinoline.
So hold your hats, for here we go
To the dear dead days when a girl's best beau
Had his heart in it,
As he went to the spinet,
And sang to her this charming serenade;
When you wore a tulip,
A sweet yellow tulip,
And I wore a big red rose,
When you caressed me,
It was then heaven blessed me,
What a blessing no-one knows.
You made life cheery
When you called me dearie,
It was down where the blue grass grows.
Your lips were sweeter than julip
When you wore a tulip
And I wore a big red rose.
When you wore a tulip,
Yes, you wore a yellow tulip,
And I, and I wore a rose,
A big fat rose!
When you caressed me,
'Twas then heaven blessed me,
What a bless, what a bless,
What a blessing no-one knows.
You made life cheery
When you called me dearie,
It was down where the blue grass grows.
Your lips were sweeter than julip
When you wore a tulip
And I wore a big red rose.
