With his little ol lapFull of hundreds and hundreds of girls
What gives a manPower and punchTina for breakfastAnd Lena for lunchHaving hundreds and hundreds of girls
Show him a blondeAnd something in his soul will leap to respondBut then again hes also terribly fondOf this brunette and soInstead of one dandy dishPass him the candy dish
Ill sprinkle spiceInto his lifeTo make him forgetThat hes stuck with his wifeGive him hundreds and hundreds of girls!
Beulah and Belle
James Mitchell and Bernadette Peters.

Having hundreds and hundreds of girls
Ill fill the screenWith Jan and Jane and Joan and Janet and JeanIll pull the greatest stunt this business hasseenTill evry fella from Duluth to Atlanta seesAll of his fantasies!
Analysts findThis thing called modern man was neverdesignedWith only one eternal partner in mindAnd so I gotta yell, To hell with proprietyViva variety
Sinner or saintSchoolgirl or queenOne girl is boringAnd two are obsceneGive me hundreds and hundreds and hundredsAnd hundreds of girls!
WHEN MABEL COMES IN THE ROOM
Somehow the ceilingSeems a little higherFrom the very moment I see Mabel come inthe roomIt feels like someoneLit a roaring fireBut its just the glow I get when Mabel comesin the roomThe faded sofaStands a little prouderThat bunch of artificial flowers might evenbloomI can feel my heartbeatBeat a little louderThe very moment I see Mabel come in theroom
