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>
