That's all brother
Mae west
I've the tiniest confession
I distinctly loath suppression
Since I only have one life
I want to live it
Well I've clowned around a lot
Well I've found what hits the spot
If I've something good to give
I want to give it
Now those censors say I'm naughty and no dice
But I've heard it said what's naughty can be nice
It's not what I say, it's the way that I say it
That's all brother, that's all
It's not what I play, it's the way that I play it
That's all brother, that's all
Now maybe they'd picture me as little Snow White
With seven dwarves to entertain
I should do all right
But should I ask to concentrate on one dwarf a night
That's all brother, that's all
It's not what I tell, it's the way that I tell it
That's all brother, that's all
It's not what I sell, it's the way that I sell it
That's all brother, that's all
They'd have me play that little girl all dressed in red
I'd make a good red riding hood somebody said
But should they find me with a wolf in my grandmother's bed
That's all brother, that's all
Now please don't misunderstand me
I take much of what they hand me
Though it cramps my style I'll never be defeated
Since I've always found response
Well, I know what the public wants
And just as long as there's a West
It won't be cheated
While my censor friends are turning both thumbs down
Just like many I'll still kick that guy around
It's not what I wear, it's the way that I wear it
That's all brother, that's all
It's not what I share, it's the way that I share it
That's all brother, that's all I like a love scene that's as hot as can be
So they said Cinderella played one something to see
But if they think a fairy prince can play games with me That's all brother, that's all It's not what I know, it's the way that I know it That's all brother, that's all It's not what I show, it's the way that I show it That's all brother, that's all They'd have me portray that maiden so sweet That girlie with the mortgage due and little to eat But if I call to the butcher boy to bring me some meat That's all brother, that's all
I distinctly loath suppression
