SONG: Timeless To Me
ARTIST: Marc Shaiman & Scott Wittman
From the musical, Hairspray
#9
Styles keep a changin'
(#5)
The world's re arrangin'
But Edna, you're timeless to me
Hemlines are shorter
A beer costs a quarter
But time cannot take what comes free
You're like a stinky old cheese, babe
(#9)/
Just gettin' riper with age
You're like a fatal disease, babe
But there's no cure
(b9)
So let this fever rage
Some folks can't stand it
(#5)
Say time is a bandit
But i take the opposite view
(b5)
Cause when i need a lift
Time brings a gift
Another day with you
A twist or a waltz
It's all the same schmaltz
(#11)
With just a change in the scenery
You'll never be old hat
(#11)
That's that!
(b9)
You're timeless to me
Fads keep a fadin'
(#5)
Castro's invading!
But wilbur, you're timeless to me
Hairdos are higher
Mine feels like barbed wire
But you say i'm chic as can be!
(#5)
You're like a rare vintage ripple
(#9)/
A vintage they'll never forget
So pour me a teeny weenie triple
(#5) (b9)
And we can toast the fact we ain't dead yet!
I can't stop eating
Your hairline's receding
Soon there'll be nothing at all
(b5)
So, you'll wear a wig
(b9)
While i roast a pig
Gm7Gm11
Hey! Pass that geritol
Glenn Miller had class
That Chubby Checker's a gas
(#11)
But they all pass eventually
You'll never be passe
Hip hooray!
(b9)
You're timeless to me
+
You're like a broken down chevy
+
All you need is a fresh coat of paint
And Edna, you got me goin' hot and heavy
(#5)
You're fat and old, but baby, boring you ain't!
Some folks don't get it
But we never fret it
'Cause we know that time is our friend
(b5)
And it's plain to see
That you're stuck with me
Until the bitter end
And we got a kid
Who's blowin' the lid
+ (#11)
Off the Turnblad family tree
You'll always hit the spot
(#11)
Big shot!
You're timeless to me
You'll always be du jour
(#11)
Mon amour
You're timeless to me
You'll always be first string
(#11)
Ring a ding ding!
You're timeless to me
You're timeless to me
You're timeless to me
You're timeless to me!!
