I LOVE AN ESQUIRE GIRL fr "Dubarry Was A Lady" 1943 film Burton Lane (m) Roger Edens (l) Ralph Freed (l) 1943 Dick Haymes Red Skelton & Chorus w Tommy Dorsey & his Orch (film soundtrack) When I buy an Esquire, The bible of the well-dressed man, My pulse jumps ten points higher, But not because of each dapper dan! I don't go in for fashions, I forget the authors' names, The only thing I go for Are those beautiful dames! I love an Esquire girl, If you don't love an esquire girl, You won't like steak, Apple strudel, Angel cake, Soup with noodle. You would eat an oyster but you'd throw away the pearl If you don't love an Esquire girl! I love a Varga girl; If you don't love a Varga girl, You'd laugh out loud at Whistler's mother, Frankenstein's sure to be your brother! You would buy a Persian lamb and cut off every curl If you don't love a Varga girl! Those lovely pictures by Hourel I hang on every wall, They're so swell I have to yell, "Hourel for evermore!". I crave a lovely girl; If you don't crave a lovely girl, You've got a head but what's below it? You're half dead but you don't know it! And if Lana Turner doesn't set your brain awhirl, Then you don't love a lovely girl! If you still don't love a lovely girl, There's something you should see; The calendar that we present For nineteen forty three! January, you resolve to start the year out fine, February, you make every heart a Valentine. March, you are just a bit unruly, April, you're so April fooly! May, you're so romantic with your magic touch of Spring, June, you have each couple hoping wedding bells will ring! July brings out the good old Yankee Doodle in me, And August, what a wonderful vacation you'd be! Sweet September, you arrive and disappear too soon, But you bring October and the lovely harvest moon! November makes us thankful for the blessings we hold dear, December makes us realise it's been a lovely year! I crave a lovely girl; If you don't crave a lovely girl, You've got a head but what's below it? You're half dead but you don't know it! And if Lana Turner doesn't set your brain awhirl, Then you don't love a lovely girl! (Contributed by Peter Akers - October 2010)
