KEEP YOUNG AND BEAUTIFUL From the film "Roman Scandals" (1933) (Music: Harry Warren / Lyrics: Al Dubin) Eddie Cantor (Film Soundtrack) - 1933 Denny Dennis (with Roy Fox & His Band) - 1934 Annie Lennox - 1992 Claire Martin - 2006 As performed by EDDIE CANTOR and Female Chorus in the 1934 film "Roman Scandals": Athletics, cosmetics, a weighing machine Are part of the feminine daily routine For what? And oceans of lotions and potions you take To keep that old something or other awake Why not? Even after you grow old, baby You don't have to be a cold baby Keep young and beautiful It's your duty to be beautiful Keep young and beautiful If you wanta be loved, dah-dah-dah-dah Don't fail to do your stuff With a little powder and a puff Keep young and beautiful If you wanta be loved If you're wise, exercise all the fat off Take it off, off o' here, off o' there When you're seen anywhere with your hat off Have a permanent wave in your hair Take care of all those charms And you'll always be in someone's arms Keep young and beautiful If you wanta be loved (Be sure and get your man) (Wrap your body in a coat of tan) (Keep young and beautiful) (If you want to be loved) (You'll always have your way) (If he likes you in a negligee) (Keep young and beautiful) (If you want to be loved) (Oh, a slim little waste is a pleasure) (And a trim little limb is divine) (Oh, a sly little eye is a treasure) (It'll get him drunker than wine) You'll drive him half insane In a bathing suit of cellophane (Keep young and beautiful) (If you want to be loved) (Each wrinkle in your skin) (Rub it out and rub a dimple in) (Keep young and beautiful) (If you want to be loved) (In using or choosing a lipstick) (Use the kind that won't leave any mark) (Use the kind that'll make both his lips stick) (When he kisses you in the dark) Get him to hold you tight Let him get a whiff of Christmas night And keep young and beautiful If you wanta be loved If it's not very hot in the steam room Then you've gotta get hot in the cold There is heat to the beat of the music If they let their bodies unfold (Shake well to slenderise) (Roll your eyes around for exercise) (Keep young and beautiful) (If you want to be loved) (Orchestral Interlude) (Keep young and beautiful) (If you want to be loved) (Dance Routine) Keep young and beautiful If you want to be loved Oh, death where is thy sting I don't care 'cause I've seen ev'rything Keep young and blub-blub-blub-blub (underwater sounds) (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - August 2012) ************************* As recorded by DENNY DENNIS with Roy Fox & His Band, March 16th 1934, London: Keep young and beautiful, It's your duty to be beautiful; Keep young and beautiful If you want to be loved! Don't fail to do your stuff With a little Powderetta puff; Keep young and beautiful If you want to be loved! If you're wise, exercise all that fat off; Take it off, off o'here, off o' there! When you're seen anywhere with your hat off, Have a Marcel wave in your hair! Take care of all those charms And you'll always be in someone's arms; Keep young and beautiful If you want to be loved! (Transcribed by Peter Akers - July 2011) *************************
