Beautiful Bashful Eyes
Big beautiful bashful eyes
with lashes oh so long
I love your beautiful bashful eyes.
They remind me of a song.,
a song to describe their color
and their lids that are half closed.
They never let me see behind them.
What they're feeling is never exposed.
Big beautiful bashful eyes
are lost in timid intent.
I wish for them to open wide
to see where they have spent
their shy-retiring gazes?
Were they ever looking my way?
Or were they lost in silent thought
afraid that they might stray
And find that all around you
eyes would be looking your way?
My eyes would be among them
and you would hear me say.
'Big beautiful bashful eyes
with lashes oh so long
you've captivated my attention
and are now the words to my song.
'Beautiful eyes, bashful and blue
my thoughts are lost in you.
Your lashes long, your lids dreamy-eyed,
no one can tell what secrets they hide.
I have secrets my eyes hide too.
They're all about my feelings for you.
Those bashful eyes have become for me
everything that I dreamed they would be.'

A gentleman has his eyes on all those present; he is tender toward the bashful, gentle toward the distant, and merciful toward the absent.

Funny—to be a Century

Funny—to be a Century—
And see the People—going by—
I—should die of the Oddity—
But then—I'm not so staid—as He—
He keeps His Secrets safely—very—
Were He to tell—extremely sorry
This Bashful Globe of Ours would be—
So dainty of Publicity—

Arides
The bashful Arides
Has married an ugly wife,
He was bored with his manner of life,
Indifferent and discouraged he thought he might as
Well do this as anything else.
Saying within his heart,’I am no use to myself,
'Let her, if she wants me, take me.'
He went to his doom.

And though I might have learnt more wit and advanced my understanding by living in a Court, yet being dull, fearful and bashful, I neither heeded what was said or practised, but just what belonged to my loyal duty and my own honest reputation.

Me! Come! My dazzled face
Me! Come! My dazzled face
In such a shining place!
Me! Hear! My foreign ear
The sounds of welcome near!
The saints shall meet
Our bashful feet.
My holiday shall be
That they remember me;
My paradise, the fame
That they pronounce my name.

Come slowly—Eden!
Come slowly—Eden!
Lips unused to Thee—
Bashful—sip thy Jessamines—
As the fainting Bee—
Reaching late his flower,
Round her chamber hums—
Counts his nectars—
Enters—and is lost in Balms.

Come Slowly
Come slowly,
Eden
Lips unused to thee.
Bashful, sip thy jasmines,
As the fainting bee,
Reaching late his flower,
Round her chamber hums,
Counts his nectars -alights,
And is lost in balms!

Its Carnival Time
(words & music by weisman - wayne)
Come on kids from eight to eighty
Hey there mister bring your lady
Theres a big show on the inside
Its carnival time
Popcorn, peanuts and cotton candy
Pink lemonade thats dan-dan-dandy
Be a big shot for a dollar
Its carnival time
Roustabouts are roustaboutn
And theres happy shouts, children shoutin
If youve got doubts quit your doubtin
Theres thrills, its spice
Its cheap at half the price
So dont be bashful, buy a ticket
Get the habit never kick it
Hit the band there, dont just stand there
Its carnival time
Roustabouts are roustaboutn
And theres happy shouts, children shoutin
If youve got doubts quit your doubtin
Theres thrills, its spice
Its cheap at half the price
So dont be bashful, buy a ticket
Get the habit never kick it
Hit the band there, dont just stand there
Its carnival time
Its carnival time

Hes So Unusual
You talk of sweeties bashful sweeties
Ive got one of those
Oh hes handsome as can be
But he worries me
He goes to college
And gathers knowledge
Oo, what that boy knows
Hes up in his latin and greek
But in his chicin hes weak cause,
When I want some lovin
And I gotta have some lovin
He says please stop it please
Hes so unusual...
