Land of stardust land of glamour
Hollywood, Hollywood
Land of stardust and land of glamour
Vistavision and Cinerama
Everyone considers it a must
To get to Hollywood or bust
I love to hang around
The lazy countryside
(Where things are nice and breezy)
With nature’s gang around
The lazy countryside
(Where life is twice as easy)
Where the crickets you don’t hear in the city
Keep a-hummin’ in your ear, oh, so pretty
[Editor’s note: Say It With a Slap is, frankly, a weird little song. The concept is, when a boy & girl bear fall in love, they slap each other. The hero of the story, Bongo, has been raised in a circus … And doesn’t know this. And his would-be girlfriend is heartbroken that he won’t slap her. As I say, a weird little song …]
Say It With a Slap [song lyrics]
My, what a happy day
What a sunny sky
Kind of makes you sigh in a happy way
What a very merry day
All the world is gay
When your cares are light
And your heart takes flight
And you’re swept away
In my favorite dream
Everyone is so delightful
No one’s mean or spiteful
In my favorite dream
Fun, fun, fun and fancy-free
Full of fun and fancy-free
That’s the way I wanna be
I don’t let my troubles trouble me
Fancy free
Full of, full of fun
Got no time to worry none
Too busy singin’ in the sun, sweet sun
Constantly I looked for you,
No day or two, but constantly!
Constantly I wished you near,
And now you’re here, so close to me!
Life is a book that we study
Some of its leaves bring a sigh
There it was written by a buddy
That we must part, you and I
Ain’t got a dime to my name,
What a terrible shame
Ho Hum, ho ho Hum.
