[Chorus:]
|
Call on Dolly!
|
If your neighbour needs a new romance
|
Just name that kind of man your sister wants
|
And she'll snatch them up
|
Don't forget to bring your maiden aunts and
|
She'll match 'em up.
|
Call on
|
[Dolly:]
|
Missus Dolly!
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
She's the one the spinsters recomend
|
She even find a lovely bride
|
|
Call on Dolly!
|
[Fade out]
|
|
[Dolly:]
|
I have always been a woman who arranges things,
|
for the pleasure--and the profit--it derives.
|
I have always been a woman who arranges things,
|
like furniture and daffodils and lives.
|
|
If you want your sister courted, brother wed, or cheese imported:
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
If you want your roof inspected, eyebrows tweezed, or bills collected:
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
If you want your daughter dated, or some marriage consummated,
|
for a rather modest fee.
|
If you want a husband spotted, boyfriend traced, or chicken potted:
|
I'll arrange for making all arrangements
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
|
If you want your ego bolstered, muscles toned, or chair upholstered:
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
Charming social introductions, expert mandolin instructions:
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
If you want your culture rounded, French improved, or torso pounded:
|
With a ten year guarantee.
|
If you want a birth recorded, collies bred, or kittens ported:
|
I'll proceed to plan the whole procedure
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
|
([Mr. Sullivan:] Where to, Dolly?
|
[Dolly:] Yonkers, New York, to handle a highly personal matter for
|
Mr. Horace Vandergelder, the well-known, unmarried, half-a-millionaire.
|
[Mr. Sullivan:] Gonna marry him yourself, Dolly?
|
[Dolly:] Why, Mr. Sullivan, whatever put such a preposterous idea into my head--your head!)
|
|
If you want a law abolished, jury swayed, or toenails polished:
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
If you want your liver tested, glasses made, cash invested:
|
Just leave everything to me.
|
If you want your children coddled, corsets pulled, or furs remodeled,
|
or some nice, fresh fricassee.
|
If you want your bustle shifted, wedding planned, or bosom lifted--
|
Don't be ashamed girls,
|
Life is full of secrets, and I keep 'em!
|
|
I'll discretely use my own discretion
|
I'll arrange for making all arrangements
|
I'll proceed to plan the whole procedure
|
Just leave everything to me!
