Chop Suey Sneak Peak: I Enjoy Being A Girl

Mon Jan 11, 11:58 PM by editor

Sing-a-Long to I Enjoy Being A Girl, featured in Flower Drum Song!

I Enjoy Being A Girl Lyrics

When I have a brand new hairdo
With my eyelashes all in curl,
I float as the clouds on air do,
I enjoy being a girl!

When men say I’m cute and funny
And my teeth aren’t teeth, but pearl,
I just lap it up like honey
I enjoy being a girl!

Chop Suey Lyrics

Chop suey, chop suey!
Living here is very much like chop suey.

Hula hoops and nuclear war,
Doctor Salk and Zsa Zsa Gabor,
Bobby Darin, Sandra Dee, and Dewey,
Chop suey, —Chop suey!—

Stars are drifting overhead,
Birds and worms have gone to bed.
Men work late in laboratories,
Others read detective stories.

Some are roaming ‘round the country,
Others sit beneath just one tree.
Tonight on TV’s Late, Late Show
You can look at Clara Bow! —Who?—

Chop suey, chop suey!
Good and bad, intelligent, mad, and screwy.
Violins and trumpets and drums,
Take it all the way that it comes,
Sad and funny, sour and honey dewy,
Chop suey!


Ballpoint pens and filter tips,
Lipsticks and potato chips.
In the dampest kind of heat wave
You can give your hair a neat wave.

Hear that lovely La Paloma,
Lullaby by Perry Como.
Dreaming in my Maid’nform bra,
Dreamed I danced the Cha-Cha-Cha.

Chop suey, chop suey!
Mixed with all the hokum and bally hooey.
Something real and glowing grand.
Sheds a light all over the land.

Boston, Austin, Wichita, and St. Louey,
Chop suey.
Chop suey, chop suey!
Chop suey, chop suey!

reviewVancouver – June, 2009
Review by John Jane

I was relieved, perhaps even jubilant to find that the Vancouver Asian Canadian Theatre (VACT) was mounting the original version of Flower Drum Song by Oscar Hammerstein II and Joseph Fields, preferring it to the darker re-scripted book by David Henry Hwang.
