Things I Don't Like to See

歌詞

Don't like to see ladies all painted and fine Smiling at gents that are on the decline They'd better be of home, a-washing of dishes Mending their dresses or husband's old britches You may call me quis, you may call me uptight But these are some things that look queer to the eye Don't like to see boys just from their mamma Walking the streets and smoking cigars They'd better be at home aplaying with toys Than walking the streets saying: "I'm one of the You may call me quis, you may call me uptight But these are some things that look queer to the eye Don't like to see dandies without any cash Walking the streets and cutting a dash Looking at ladies so charming and sweet With a cent in their pockets and nothing to eat You may call me quis, you may call me uptight But these are some things that look queer to the eye Don't like to see youngsters so snappy and bold Speak short to old people, because they are old They'd better be thinking while they are young That the same old age to them will come You may call me quis, you may call me uptight But these are some things that look queer to the eye When people have money some will fly so high Turn down a true friend and pass them by But when the tide turns and they go down They're the saddest people that can be found You may call me quis, you may call me uptight But these are some things that look queer to the eye This world's a mystery no one can solve I've studied it over with great fear and love I've read the bible and know it is true And this is the message I'm leaving you You may call me quis, you may call me uptight But these are some things that look queer to the eye
