Dames Page #7

---

Are temporary flames

To you, dames

You don't recall their names

Do you?

But their caresses

And home addresses

Linger in your memory

Of those beautiful dames

- Yes?

- Mr. Earl Farroll to see you.

- Can't see him.

- Also Mr. George Hershwin.

Tell him, "Tomorrow." Now, gentlemen...

- Well?

- Miss Dolly Devoe to see you.

Show her right in.

- Miss Devoe?

- Yes.

- Come right in.

- Thank you. Kind of you to see me.

Oh, not at all. Yes?

- Miss Dubin, Miss Warren, Miss Kelly, Miss...

- Send them all in.

Come right in, girls.

Leave your addresses

My big successes

All depend a lot upon

You beautiful dames

As I was telling all those gentlemen

A while ago

That what do we go for

Go see a show for

Tell the truth

We go to see you beautiful dames

We spend our dough for

Bouquets that grow for

All you cute and cunning

Young and beautiful dames

Oh, dames are necessary

To show business

Dames, without you there would be

No business

Your knees in action

That's the attraction

And what good's a show

Without you beautiful dames?

Rehearsal tomorrow, 11:00

Be there promptly by then

Better set your alarm clocks for 9

At least no later than 10

Hooray for the Ounce Foundation

For the Elevation of Celebration. Hooray.

The O.P. For the E. Of the A.F.M.

Boys. Be quiet.

Those people are all staring at you.

Well, they couldn't be staring

at a better couple of men.

- He's getting ready.

- It won't be long now.

That creature's trying to lure you boys.

Impossible. I never even

saw her before in my whole life.

She's a very nice, friendly young lady.

Stop this show.

Keep going. Keep going, girls.

What's the matter? Girls, girls.

Oh, Ezra, you started it, now stop it.

I knew I should've stayed at home.

Quiet. Quiet.

Oh, Horace, get away from

those shameless women.

Oh, Mathilda, go away

and leave me alone. I'm in jail.

Silence.

Mr. Ounce, I've arranged to

get you out of this terrible jail.

Yes, but I don't wanna

get out of jail. I like it.

I never had a better time in my life.

But, Ezra, think

of the Ounce Foundation.

You know what I think

of the Ounce Foundation?

Phooey.

We'll get a million dollars' worth of publicity

out of this. The show will run a year.

Maybe we owe Uncle Ezra

a vote of thanks.

I'll offer him a job

as company press agent.

Say, by the way, I was going

to ask you something after the show.

Is it all right now?

You couldn't pick a better time

or a better place.
