Leonard Bernstein
We Are Women (Polka)
[CUNEGONDE & OLD LADY]
We are women! We are women!
We are women, little women
Little, little women are we!

[OLD LADY]
Not a man ever born ever could resist
A well-turned calf, a slender wrist
A silhouette as airy as the morning mist
And a dainty dimpled knee

[CUNEGONDE]
Every male I may meet must acclaim for weeks
My twinkling thighs, my flaxen cheeks
My memorable mammaries like Alpine peaks
High above a wine-dark sea

[OLD LADY & CUNEGONDE]
We've necks like swans, and oh, such sexly legs
We're so light-footed we could dance on eggs
A pair of nymphs from fairyland
And every day in every way our charms expand!

[CUNEGONDE]
You may add
[OLD LADY]
If you wish

[CUNEGONDE]
To that growing list

[OLD LADY]
A mouth so fair

[CUNEGONDE]
It must be kissed

[CUNEGONDE & OLD LADY]
And parts we cannot mention but we know exist
In a rich abundancy
Not a man ever born ever could resist
A pretty little thing like me!

[OLD LADY]
Not a man ever born ever could resist
A well-turned calf, a slender wrist
A silhouette as airy as the morning mist
And a dainty dimpled knee

[CUNEGONDE]
Every male I may meet must acclaim for weeks
My twinkling thighs, my flaxen cheeks
My memorable mammaries like Alpine peaks
High above a wine-dark sea
[OLD LADY]
We've Giotto hands

[CUNEGONDE]
We've Giotto hands

[OLD LADY]
Da Vinci smiles

[CUNDEGONDE]
And Mona Lisa smiles

[CUNEGONDE & OLD LADY]
We are brava divina to balletophiles
A pair of nymphs from fairyland
And every day in every way our charms expand!

[CUNEGONDE]
You may add

[OLD LADY]
If you wish

[CUNEGONDE]
To that growing list
[OLD LADY]
A mouth so fair

[CUNEGONDE]
It must be kissed

[CUNEGONDE & OLD LADY]
And parts we cannot mention but we know exist
In a rich abundancy
Not a man ever born ever could resist
A pretty little thing like me!

We are women! We are women!
We are women, we are little, little women
Little, little, little women are we!
