Lyrics

The age of consent (gershwin/gershwin)

Da ra da am de ra am de
Ba ra ba am dee da am doo
Ba ra am de ba ra am de
Da ra doo dee

It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
The things that you're liable
To read in the bible
It ain't necessarily so

David was small but oh my
David was small but oh my
He shot goliath
Who lay down and dieth
Little david was small but oh my

Da ra da am de ra am de
Ba ra ba am dee da am doo
Ba ra am de ba ra am de
Da ra doo dee

Jonah he lived in a whale
Jonah he lived in a whale
He made his home in that fishes abdomen
Jonah he lived in a whale

Moses was found on a stream
Moses was found on a stream
Floated on water old pharoah's daughter
Fished him she says from that stream

It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so
They tell all your children
The devil he's a billain
It ain't necessarily so

Da ra da am de ra am de
Ba ra ba am dee da am doo
Ba ra am de ba ra am de
Da ra doo dee

It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily so

Things that you're liable
To read in that bible
It ain't necessarily so
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily
It ain't necessarily so
