Den of Iniquity Lyrics by Vivienne Segal, Harold Lang

Pal Joey (1950 Studio Cast Recording)

0

[VERA]
Just two little lovebirds all alone
In a little cozy nest
With a little secret telephone
That's the place to rest
[JOEY]
Artificial roses 'round the door
They are never out of bloom
[VERA]
And a flowered carpet on the floor
In the loving room
[VERA & JOEY]
In our little den of iniquity
Our arrangement is good
[VERA]
It's much more healthy living here
This rushing back home is bad, my dear
[JOEY]
I haven't caught a cold all year
[VERA]
Knock on wood
[VERA & JOEY]
It was ever thus, since antiquity
All the poets agree
[VERA]
The chambermaid is very kind
She always thinks we're so refined
[JOEY]
Of course, she's deaf and dumb and blind
[VERA & JOEY]
No fools, we
In our little den of iniquity
In our little den of iniquity
For a girly and boy
[VERA]
We'll sit and let the hours pass
A canopy bed has so much class
[JOEY]
And so's a ceiling made of glass
[VERA & JOEY]
Oh, what joy!
Love has been that way since antiquity
Down to you and to me
[VERA]
The radio I used to hate
Now when it is dark and late
Tchaikovsky's "1812" sounds great!
[VERA & JOEY]
That's for me
In our little den of iniquity
Oh, what joy!
Love has been that way since antiquity
Down to you and to me
[JOEY]
We're very proper folks, you know
[VERA]
We've separate bedrooms comme il faut
There's one for play and one for show
[VERA & JOEY]
You chase me
In our little den of iniquity
