(David Wheat/Bill Loughborough)
|
With Ruby and Ollie soon over the hill, for marrying Tommy there still is no pill.
|
|
We're the world's last authentic playboys, just three fun-loving ne'er-do-wells.
|
Our whole attitude says life's a gay toy to be played with and raced through pell mell.
|
|
Acapulco each winter for fishing, then summer to Bar Harbor, Maine.
|
If the cycle gets boringly vicious, we shall try Monte Carlo again.
|
|
We're the world's last authentic playboys. We were born thirty years too late.
|
Though we're blessed with savoir-faire and rare boys, both these virtues are useless at fate.
|
|
I fought bulls at a Plaza de Toros. Chased gorillas around in the trees.
|
Such adventures now make me feel morose and blase as a playboy can be.
|
|
We're the world's last authentic playboys, just a trio of rogues on the loose.
|
We pursue life while searching for new joys, just ahead of the shoot gun and noose.
|
|
When they find the abominable snowman, running nude through the snow four miles high
|
They'll say, "Are you an ape?" I'll say, "No, man. I just thought I'd give this roll a try."
|
|
We're the world's last authentic playboys, just three lunatics still at large.
|
If you're female and we think you're pretty, you're in luck, it's all free. There's no charge.
|
|
'Til taxes get lower, we're all that are left; three authentic playboys too lazy for theft.
