(You’re) Timeless to Me Lyrics by Martin Short, Harvey Fierstein
Hairspray Live! (NBC Television Event Original Soundtrack)
2016
[WILBUR] Styles keep a changin' The world's rearrangin' But Edna, you're timeless to me Hemlines are shorter A beer costs a quarter But time cannot take what comes free You're like a stinky old cheese, babe Just gettin' riper with age You're like a fatal disease, babe And there's no cure, so let this fever rage Some folks can't stand it, say time is a bandit But I take the opposite view Cause when I need a lift, time brings a gift Another day with you A twist or a waltz Is all the same schmaltz With just a change in the scenery You'll never be old hat That's that! You're timeless to me [EDNA] (spoken) Oh, Wilbur! (sung) Fads keep a-fadin', Castro's invading! But Wilbur, you're timeless to me Hairdos are higher, mine feels like barbed wire But you say I'm chic as can be! You're like a rare vintage ripple A vintage they'll never forget So pour me a teeny weenie triple And we can toast the fact we ain't dead yet! I can't stop eating Your hairline's receding And soon there'll be nothing at all So, you'll wear a wig While I roast a pig Hey! Pass the Geritol Glenn Miller had brass, that Chubby Checker's a gas But they all pass eventually You'll never be passé, hip hooray! You're timeless to me *Dialouge* [EDNA] You're like a broken down chevy All you need is a fresh coat of paint [WILBUR] And Edna, you got me goin' hot and heavy You're fat and old, but baby, boring you ain't! [WILBUR & EDNA] Some folks don't get it, but we never fret it 'Cause we know that time is our friend Yeah it's plain to see that you're stuck with me Until the bitter end And we got a kid Who's blowin' the lid Off the Turnblad family tree [EDNA] You'll always hit the spot Big shot! You're timeless to me [WILBUR] You'll always be du jour Mon amour You're timeless to me [EDNA] You'll always be first string [WILBUR] Ring-a-ding-ding! [WILBUR & EDNA] You're timeless to me [EDNA] You're timeless to me [WILBUR] You're timeless to me [WILBUR & EDNA] You're timeless to me [EDNA] Ha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha!
