harold arlen - napoleon lyrics
napoleon’s a pastry
bismarck is a herring
alexander’s a crème de cacao mixed with rum
and herbie hoover is a vacuum
columbus is a circle and a day off
pershing is a square, what a pay-off
julius caesar is just a salad on a shelf
so, little brother, get wise to yourself
life’s a bowl and it’s full of cherry pits
play it big and it throws you for a loop
that’s the way with fate, comes today, we’re great
comes tomorrow, we’re tomato soup
napoleon’s a pastry
get this under your brow
what once useta be a roosta’
is just a dusta’ now
napoleon’s a pastry
dubarry is a lipstick
pompadour’s a hairdo
good queen mary just floats along from pier to pier
venus de milo is a pink br-ssiere
sir gladstone is a bag, ain’t it shocking?
and the mighty kaiser, just a stocking
the czar of russia is now a jar of caviar
and cleopatra is a black cigar
yes, my honey lamb, swift is just a ham
lincoln’s a tunnel, coolidge is a dam
yes, my n-ble lads, comes today, we’re fads
comes tomorrow, we are subway ads
homer is just a swat
get this under your brow
all these bigwig controversials
are just commercials now
better get your jug of wine
and loaf of love
before that final vow
napoleon’s a pastry
caesar is a salad
get it while you’re able
