Hundreds of Girls
[MACK SENNETT]
I'll make a star and a half out of that one
The one with the dimples, the redhead, the fat one
How 'bout the one on the blanket, the one playing ball?
Let's take 'em both!
Aw, to hell with it, let's take 'em all!

What gives a man ginger and snap?
Goin' through life with his little ol' lap
Full of hundreds and hundreds of girls

What gives a man power and punch?
Tina for breakfast, and Lena for lunch
Having hundreds and hundreds of girls

Show him a blonde
And something in his soul will leap to respond
But then again he's also tеrribly fond
Of this brunette and so
Instead of onе dandy dish
Pass him the candy dish

I'll sprinkle spice into his life
To make him forget that he's stuck with his wife
Give him hundreds and hundreds of girls
Beulah and Belle, Gladys and Gert
Two for the entree, and three for dessert
Give him hundreds and hundreds of girls

Four on a slide, five on a swing
I'm gonna make the cash register ring
Having hundreds and hundreds of girls

I'll fill the screen with Jan and Jane and Joan and Janet and Jean
I'll pull the greatest stunt this business has seen
Till every fella from Duluth to Atlanta sees
All of his fantasies
Look!

Analysts find
This thing called modern man
Was never designed
With only one eternal partner in mind
And so I gotta yell to
Hell with propriety
Viva variety
Sinner or saint? School girl or queen?
One girl is boring, and two are obscene
Give him hundreds and hundreds of girls
