lyrics

Without her flying tresses
I would have, heretofore
Had quite a hard time guessing
From which way the wind blows

Absolutely nothing should be thrown away
On a desert island all of her must stay

I wonder how I ever
Survived without her cheeks
That fed me two red apples
On each day of the week

Without her throat, my head
Deprived of its pillow
Would have no other bed
Besides the dirty floor

Without her solid carriage
What would happen, who knows
If I should lose my bearings
And need a hand to hold?

She has a thousand other
Most precious attributes
But on the stage, I’d rather
Not show them all to you

The charms of my love are
Many, but the masses
Must go somewhere else for
Anatomy classes

In fact, this is her weakness
She loves her bones a lot
She’d never acquiesce
To be cut into parts

She’s not a little proud
And also ticklish, quite
And one must take the lot
Or leave her all behind

Absolutely nothing should be thrown away
On a desert island all of her must stay
