No. 18 - Song - Kitty and Chorus - "Kitty's not built that way."
Kitty: | I'm nothing more or less than Kitty Grey. Just very ordinary Kitty Grey; You've often passed me by when in the street And never stopped to admire my waist or dainty feet. But when on the stage I am dancing, You ought to hear the remarks that are made: The men all say that I'm simply entrancing, The ladies put down their iced lemonade. It's no small wonder My ears start a-burning; I hear exactly the same thing ev'ry day. My little head they are all bent on turning, But no thanks! Kitty's not built that way. |

It's no small wonder My ears start a-burning; I hear exactly the same thing ev'ry day. My little head they are all bent on turning, But no thanks! Kitty's not built that way. |
Kitty: | I'm very much like other people are, I had a father once, and a mamma: I feel the cold sometimes, also the heat, And then I sleep and I drink and I talk and sometimes eat! But when on the stage I am dancing, You ought to hear the remarks that are made: The men all say that I'm simply entrancing, The ladies put down their iced lemonade. It's no small wonder My ears start a-burning; I hear exactly the same thing ev'ry day. My little head they are all bent on turning, But no thanks! Kitty's not built that way. |

Kitty: | In ev'ry day affairs I'm not unique. I sometimes fall in love, for quite a week, I'm not as good as gold, I'm not too bad. I'm sometimes down in the dumps and occasionally sad. But when on the stage I am dancing, You ought to hear the remarks that are made: The men all say that I'm simply entrancing, The ladies put down their iced lemonade. It's no small wonder My ears start a-burning; I hear exactly the same thing ev'ry day. My little head they are all bent on turning, But no thanks! Kitty's not built that way. |
