lirik lagu ah! but underneath – cleo laine
[phyllis]
never judge a book by its cover—
the thing that counts is what’s inside
never judge a lady by her lover—
it isn’t a reliable guide
the lady may decide her obligations
are merely to reflect his expectations
if his idea of ecstasy
‘s to see what he expects to see—
well, ignorance is bliss
but think of what he’ll miss…
she was smart, tart
dry as a martini—
ah, but underneath…
she was all heart
something by puccini—
ah, but underneath…
in the dеpths of her interior
werе fears she was inferior
and something even eerier
but no one dared to query her
superior
exterior
she was chic, sleek
anything in fashion—
that was just a sh*ll
take a close peek
you could see the passion—
that was one as well
to conclude
you’d
soon discover
the secret of her
ap—
—peal
was the wonder
which lay underneath—
which she wasn’t about to reveal
that was her liability
the curse of versatility…
she’d only allow a man to see
enough to fan his fantasy…
she made compliance
into a science
one of the giants—
loud or lewd or lah*dee*dah*dee
everything to everybody
as changeable as a chameleon
with all that entails
but n0body saw what was really un*
derneath all the veils
she was grand, bland
brave or brisk or brittle
anything required
both concerned and
strictly non*committal—
and a little tired
she was deftly deferential
or so they wrote on her wreath
no one ever glimpsed her
potential
but when stripped—
down to the essential—
mind you, this is—
confidential—
way down underneath…
she was—!
she was—!
she was—
(spoken)
sometimes when the wrappings fall
there’s nothing underneath at all
