Lyrics
Tush! tush! Tush! tush!
Dear Maud you make me shiver
That dress worn on a ferry boat
Would scare away the river
Refrain
Oh, write to Beatrice Barefacts whenever you are in doubt
Oh she will help you out
She’ll put your doubt to rout
The talented Miss Barefacts
She tells a thing or two
In the Perfect Ladies column of the Woman’s Home Magoo
Nay! nay! Nay nay!
Dear Claude there’s nothing in it
A home on eighty cents a day
Would last just eighty minutes
Dear me! Dear me!
Louise it is a question
You have a dreadful case of love
Or chronic indigestion
