The Prune Song - Frank Crumit

La la la la

La la la la

Nowadays we often gaze

On women over fifty

Without the slightest trace

Of wrinkles on their face

Doctor's go and take their dough

To make them young and nifty

But Doctor's I defy

To tell me just why

No matter how young a prune may be

It's always full of wrinkles

We may get them on our face

Prunes get them every place

Prohibition worries us

But prunes don't sit and brood

For no matter how young a prune may be

It's always getting stewed

In the kingdom of the fruits

The prune is snubbed by others

And they are not allowed

To mingle with the crowd

Though they're never on display

With all their highbrow brothers

They never seem to mind

To this fact they're resigned

That no matter how young a prune may be

It's always full of wrinkles

Beauty treatments always fail

They've tried all to no avail

Other fruits are envious

Because they know real well

That no matter how young a prune may be

Hot water makes them swell

Baby prunes look like their dad

But not wrinkled quite as bad

Every day in every way

The world is getting better

We've even learned to fly

As days go passing by

But how about the poor old prune

His life is only wetter

No wonder he can't win

In the awful stew he's in

No matter how young a prune may be

He's always full of wrinkles

We may get them on our face

Prunes get them every place

Nothing ever worries them

Their life's an open book

But no matter how young a prune may be

It has a worried look

Prunes act very kind they say

When sickly people moan

But no matter how young a prune may be

It has a heart of stone
