letra de please don't monkey with broadway - cole porter

Loading...

(verse)
[johnny and king]
due to landscape gardeners gifted
knickerbocker sp-ces are being lifted
so much
that you hardly know it as such
all the streets are being dressed up
so before they ruin broadway, i suggest that
you go
to the city fathers and say, “whoa!”

(chorus)
[johnny]
glorify sixth avenue

[king]
and put bathrooms in the zoo

[johnny and king]
but please don’t monkey with broadway

[king]
put big floodlights in the park

[johnny]
and put harlem in the dark

[johnny and king]
but please don’t monkey with broadway
though it’s tawdry and plain
it’s a lovely old lane
full of landmarks galore and memories g-y

[johnny]
so move grant’s tomb to union square

[king]
and put brooklyn anywhere

[johnny and king]
but please, please, i beg on my knees don’t monkey with old broadway

(chorus 2)
[johnny]
plant trees in the polo grounds

[king]
and put yorkville out of bounds

[johnny and king]
but please don’t monkey with broadway

[king]
close the village honkytonks

[johnny]
and suppress cheering in the bronx

[johnny and king]
but please don’t monkey with broadway
think what names used to dance
on this road of romance
think what stars used to stroll along it all day

make city hall a skating rink
and push wall street in the drink
but please, please, i beg on my knees don’t monkey with old broadway
