La Cage aux Folles movie - MASCULINITY lyrics
rate me<br>
Georges:<br>
I want you to pick up that piece of toast like a man!<br>
Think of this as<br>
Masculine toast and Masculine butter,<br>
Ready for spreading by a Masculine hand.<br>
Pick up that knife and make believe it's a machete.<br>
It'll take all your strength and steady nerves<br>
For hacking your way through the cherry preserves.<br>
Think of John Wayne, and Jean Paul Belmondo.<br>
Think of the Legionnaires and Charlemagne's men.<br>
So like a stevedore you grab your cup<br>
And if God forbid that your pinky pops up,<br>
You can climb back up the mountain once again.<br>
<br>
Georges:<br>
Have you got that?<br>
Albin:<br>
I think so!<br>
Georges:<br>
Don't think so! You're a man!<br>
Albin:<br>
I'm a man!<br>
Renaud:<br>
You're a man!<br>
Albin:<br>
I'm a man!<br>
Mme. Renaud:<br>
You're a man!<br>
Albin:<br>
I said I'm a man.<br>
Mme. Renaud:<br>
Oh, Albin<br>
Georges:<br>
About that voice of yours.<br>
Grunt like an ape, and growl like a tiger.<br>
Give us a roaring, snorting masculine laugh!<br>
Albin:<br>
Ah ah ah ah ah ah!<br>
Georges:<br>
Try to remember that John Wayne was not soprano<br>
Try making it rough and gruff and low.<br>
Albin:<br>
Ha Ha!<br>
Georges:<br>
Try more of John Wayne and less Brigitte Bardodt!<br>
Renaud:<br>
Think of De Gaulle and pick up Rasputin.<br>
Mme. Renaud:<br>
Think like you're Daniel marching into the den.<br>
Georges:<br>
While trying to join the burly brutes,<br>
If you forget that your nylons are under your boots<br>
Georges, Renaud, Mme. Renaud and Francis:<br>
You can climb back up the mountain once again...<br>
<br>
All:<br>
Think Ghengis Kan (Think!)<br>
and think Taras Bulba (Think!)<br>
(Think! Think! Think!)<br>
Think of Atilla's Huns and Robin Hood's men.<br>
(Hup! Hup!)<br>
Try not to weaken or collapse;<br>
If they discover the petticoat under your chaps<br>
You can climb back up the mountain once again.<br>
Woah! Yeah!<br>
<br>
