Which? 1928 Cole Porter from 'Paris'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 05 Aug 2003

Which is the right life,
the simple or the night life?
When, pray, should one rise,
at sunset or at sunrise?
Which should be upper,
my breakfast or my supper?
Which is the right life, which?

Does the wood nymph in the park
long for painted lips that pucker?
Would the little meadowlark
like to sing like Sophie Tucker?
Here's a question I would pose,
tell me which the sweeter smell makes,
the aroma of the rose
or the perfume that Chanel makes?

Which land is dreamier,
Arcadia or Bohemia?
Who'll tell the answer,
the daisy or the dancer?

Which life is for me,
the peaceful or the stormy?
Which is the right man,
Walt Whiteman or Paul Whiteman, which?

Should I read Euripides
or continue with the Graphic?
Hear the murmur of the breeze
or the roaring of the traffic?
Should I make one man my choice
and regard divorce as treason,
or should I like Peggy Joyce,
get a new one ev'ry season?

Which is the right life,
the simple or the night life?
When, pray, should one rise,
at sunset or at sunrise?
Which should be the upper,
my breakfast or my supper?
Which is the right life, which?
