(bing) in the cool, cool, cool of the evening
tell 'em i'll be there
in the cool, cool, cool of the evening
save your pappy a chair
when the party's gettin' a glow on
and singin' fills the air
in the shank of the night
when the doin's are right
well, you can tell 'em i'll be there
(jane) i like a barbecue
(bing) i like a boiler ham
(jane) and i vote for bouillabaise stew (bing: what's that?)
(bing) i'd like a wienie bake
steak and a layer cake
(jane) and you'll get a tummy ache, too
(bing) we rent a tent or a teepee
let the town crier cry
and if it's r.s.v.p.
this is what i'll reply:
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
tell 'em we'll be there
if you need a pair of freeloaders
to fracture your affair
i may even give them pagliacci
(jane) now, stand back and give him air
(bing) everyone can relax
and we'll have a few yacks
(both) and you can tell 'em we'll be there
(jane) whee, said the bumblebee
lets have a jubilee"
"when," said the prairie hen, "soon?"
(bing) "shore," said the dinosaur
"where?" said the grizzly bear
"under the light of the moon"
(jane) "how about your brother jackass?"
everyone gaily cried
"are you comin
to
the
fracas?
and over his specs, he sighed:
(both) in the cool, cool, cool of the evening
tell 'em we'll be there
in the cool, cool, cool of the evening
stickum in my hair
if perchance we look a bit peaked
remember, c'est la guerre
if we're still on our feet
and there's somethin' to eat
well, you can tell 'em we'll be there
(backup singers) in the cool, cool, cool of the evening
tell 'em i'll be there
in the cool, cool of the evening
better save a chair
(jane) when the party's gettin' a glow on
and singin' fills the air
(bing) if there's gas in my hack
and my laundry is back
(jane) if there's room for one more
and you need me? (bing: why, shore!)
(backup) if you need a new face
or a tenor or bass
(bing) if i can climb out of bed
and put a hat on my head
(all) well, you can tell 'em we'll be there
