The Man In The Moon Is A Lady Composer(s): Jerry Herman Performer(s): Bea Arthur
Mame: Oh, Vera, I can't wait to hear that Overture Tell me about the show!
Vera: Well, well, it's this terribly modern operetta about a lady astronomer who make a universe shaking discovery
Oooooh Aaaaaaaaah...
Vera: I have a little secret I'd like to impart That I hope doesn't give you too much of a start Tho' it's shocking, it's completely true I know it isn't gossip, or rumor, of course For I've had it from quite a reliable source And I'd like to pass it on to you
The man in the moon is a lady A lady in lipstick and curls The cow that jumped ovah cried "Jumpin' Jehovah I think it's just one of the girls" She winks at the stars from her bed of green cheese That isn't a night-gown It's a Saturn chemise Oh, her friends are the stars and the planets She sends the Big Dipper a kiss So don't ever offend her Remember her gender The man in the moon is a miss
