Biceps Muscle And Brawn 1937 Formby

Why am I forgotten
by the girl I love.
Because my clothes hang on me
like a sack?
I know I'm not athletic
and look a bit pathetic,
and wear most of my chest
upon my back.

The nations got an A.I. plan
and I might turn into a man
if I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
I'd grow spinach
on my chest
where the birds could
build their nest
If I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
In competitions,
exhibitions
catchascatchcan
I would win some lovely cups
and saucers to match
The girls would all love
my physique,
I'd let them see it
twice a week,
If I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.

My ribs at knock knock
wouldn't play
or rattle on a windy day
if I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
Hercules was far from slim
but I could show them
more than him
if I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
In competitions,
exhibitions
catchascatchcan
I would win some lovely cups
and saucers to match
The ladies "White Hope"
I should be,
they'd hope to see
much more of me
If I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.

I'll look a swell
when out of doors,
dressed in my fifty bob plus fours
if I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
My photo in the press you'd see
to show what Bile Beans
did for me
if I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
In competitions,
exhibitions
catchascatchcan
I would win some lovely cups
and saucers to match
And I'd have strength
to carry on,
And something good
to sit upon
If I'd Biceps
Muscle and Brawn.
