In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening
Celebrate Life's Joy: Evening Revelry Unveiled
Lyrics
Sue wants a barbecue,
Sue desires a barbecue.
Sam wants to boil a ham,
Sam wants to cook a ham.
Grace votes for Bouillabaisse stew.
Grace prefers Bouillabaisse stew.
Jake wants a weeny bake,
Jake wants a bake for weenies.
Steak and a layer cake,
Steak and a layer cake are on the menu.
He'll get a tummy ache too.
Consuming these may lead to a tummy ache.
We'll rent a tent or tepee.
Consider renting a tent or tepee.
Let the town crier cry.
Let the town crier announce the event.
And if it's RSVP
If it's an RSVP invitation,
This is what I'll reply
Here's my response.
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
In the serene evening,
Tell 'em I'll be there
Tell them I'll attend.
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
In the tranquil evening,
Better save a chair
Make sure to reserve a chair for me.
When the party's gettin' a glow on
As the party gains momentum,
And singin' fills the air
And singing fills the air,
In the shank of the night
During the prime of the night,
When the doin's are right
When things are going well,
You can tell 'em I'll be there
You can inform them I'll be present.
"Whee" said the bumblebee,"
The bumblebee exclaims, "Whee,"
"Let's have a jubilee"
Suggesting a jubilee.
"When?" said the prairie hen, "Soon?"
The prairie hen asks, "When?"
"Shore" said the dinosaur.
The dinosaur replies, "Sure."
"Where?" said the grizzly bear,
The grizzly bear asks, "Where?"
"Under the light of the moon?"
Under the moonlight, he says.
"How `bout ya, brother jackass?"
The jackass inquires, "How about you?"
Ev'ryone gaily cried,
Everyone enthusiastically agrees.
"You comin' to the fracas?"
Asking if he'll join the fracas,
Over his specs he sighed
He sighs, peering over his glasses.
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
In the serene evening,
Tell 'em I'll be there
Notify them I'll be there.
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
In the tranquil evening,
Slickum on my hair.
With slick hair,
When the party's gettin' a glow on
As the party gains momentum,
And singin' fills the air
And singing fills the air,
If I ain't in the clink,
If I'm not in trouble,
And there's sumpin' to drink,
And there's something to drink,
You can tell 'em I'll be there
You can inform them I'll be there.
