  • Shaving Cream

    (Many thanks to Benny Bell for these...lyrics.)

    I have a sad story to tell you

    It may hurt your feelings a bit

    Last night when I walked into my bathroom

    I stepped in a big pile of

         Shaving cream, be nice and clean

         Shave everyday and you'll always look keen

    I think I'll break off with my girlfriend

    Her antics are queer I'll admit

    Each time I say, "Darling, I love you"

    She tells me that I'm full of

         Shaving cream, be nice and clean

         Shave everyday and you'll always look keen

    Our baby fell out of the window

    You'd think that her head would be split

    But good luck was with her that morning

    She fell in a barrel of

         Shaving cream, be nice and clean

         Shave everyday and you'll always look keen

    An old lady died in a bathtub

    She died from a terrible fit

    In order to fulfill her wishes

    She was buried in six feet of

         Shaving cream, be nice and clean

         Shave everyday and you'll always look keen

    When I was in France with the army

    One day I looked into my kit

    I thought I would find me a sandwich

    But the darn thing was loaded with

         Shaving cream, be nice and clean

         Shave everyday and you'll always look keen

    And now, folks, my story is ended

    I think it is time I should quit

    If any of you feel offended

    Stick your head in a barrel of

         Shaving cream, be nice and clean

         Shave everyday and you'll always look keen
