The Last Straw

Perry Como

Perry . . . 
Yes? 
What's the matter? 
Ah! With all the girls in the world 
I gotta get tangled up with an acrobat! 
What kinda crack is that? 
Well, listen . . . 

I gulped a little goldfish 
from a goldfish bowl 
Well, that proves your age! 
Once I spent a weekend 
on a cold flagpole! 
Look Ma, no hands! 
Went over old Niagara 
in a leaky canoe 
You betcha! 
I even charmed a cobra 
with a blue kazoo 
I tied my little cousin 
to a railroad track 
Ouch! 
I put the next to last straw 
on the camel's back 
But the LAST STRAW! 
I mean the very LAST STRAW! 
was to fall in love with you . . . 

Mr. Como! 
Are you quite through? 
Well! 
Well, listen to this . . . 

I went and dug for oysters, 
in the Klondike Rush, 
I lost a whole safari 
in an underbrush 
That isn't easy! 
Went over the Sahara 
on an old pair of skies 
I did some acrobatics 
on the high trapeze 
Look Man no hands! 
I found a green banana 
in some cracker jack 
I placed the next to last straw 
on the camel's back 
But the LAST STRAW! 
I mean the very LAST STRAW! 
was to fall in love with you . . . 

All right MAN, top that! 

I made an ocean voyage 
on a floatin' log 
That's nothin' 
I've held a conversation 
with a talking dog . . . 
Victor of course! 
I saved up nearly twenty-thousand 
pop bottle tops 
Well, listen to this . . . 
I designed the paper pants 
for loin lamb chops 
I tried to find a barber 
who would cut my hair 
But Baby Doll, 
whatever maka you picka my chair? 
Well, that's the LAST STRAW! 
I mean the very LAST STRAW! 
'cause I fell in love with you . . . 

But Perry . . . 
You winked at me in Woolworth's 
on the second floor! 
But I thought you were the Hutton girl 
that owned that BIG store! 
Well, that's the LAST STRAW! 
I mean the very LAST STRAW! 
'cause I fell in love with you . . .
