Please Mr. Brown
Take it easy you're spoiling my gown
Oh I know music brings out that yearning
But right now you're learning to tango
Please Mr. Jones
Not so tight you are crushing my bones
I'll just bet you're an expert on wooing
But right now we're doing a tango
You boys, in spite of all the dancing lessons you bought
Out on the dance floor, have but one school of thought
And that is anything but what my dancing teacher taught
Please Mr. Smith
It's a lady that you're dancing with
There's a time and a place for romancing
But not while we're dancing the tango
Now you guys are just a bunch of wolves in ivy league clothes
Think as long as music's playing anything goes
No one who wants a fellow wants a slow one
But I'm a gal who wants to know one
Who knows what every lady knows
Please Mr. Smith
It's a lady that you're dancing with
There's a time and a place for romancing
But not while we're dancing
The tango.
