Lyrics

Strip Polka

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There's a burlesque theater where the boys like to go

To see Queenie, the cutie of the burlesque show

And the thrill of the evening is when out Queenie trips

And the band plays the polka while she strips.

cho 1: "Take it off! Take it off!"

All the customers shout,

"Down in front! Down in front!"

While the band beats it out;

But she's always a lady, even in pantomime

And she stops...and always just in time.

She's as fresh and as wholesome as the flowers of May

And she hopes to retire to a farm some day,

But you can't buy a farm unless you're up in the chips

So the band plays the polka while she strips.

cho 2: "Take it off! Take it off!"

Cries a voice from the rear,

"Take it off! Take it off!"

Soon that's all you can hear;

But she's always a lady, even in pantomime

And she stops...and always just in time.
