Is My Face On Straight

Lyrics

Inflate you waistcoat, wind down your eyes,
 Tie on your best smile, check your disguise.
 Dryclean your old jokes, practise despair,
 Hide your relations under the stairs.
 You're invited to attend the turkey party convention;
 Isn't that nice?
 You can leave your troubles at the door
 We have ways to make you cheer
 As long as you're not sick or poor
 A negro or a queer.
 We can fit you with a suit of clothes
 That will make you look like us,
 An appointments book and a new outlook
 A ladder or a truss
 Have another cup of reality
 Drink and drink some more!
 You can own a boat, a house, a car,
 Or live like Howard Hughes;
 Come on what have you got to lose...
 And if you're discreet there are pleasures sweet
 You can even swap your wife
 If you'11 only sign the dotted une
 You'11 be fine... Oh so fine...
 Thank you for joining here are your pills
 The man in the white coat wilI send you the bill.
 Would you like to meet
 Our most distinguished member... a doctor Faustus by name!
 Is my face on straight?
 Will they laugh at the gate
 Oh I mustn' t be late
 Is my face on straight?
 Is my face on straight?
 Will they let me throught the gate
 Oh I mustn't be late
 Is my face on straight... Is my face on straight...
 Is my face on straight?
