Eddie Cantor

I may look simple but I want you to know,
I've been to college, I'm full of knowledge.
I'm right at home with brainy men and them my wisdom I show,
But when there's clever girls around I get up and go.

Those educated babies are a bore.
I'm gonna say what I've said many times before.
Oh, the dumber they come, the better I like 'em,
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love.

A wisenheimer has you meet her folks when you call.
The brainless baby always keeps you down in the hall.
Oh, the dumbbells I've met have won beauty prizes.
They look like angels sent from above.

The clever girl will want to know if you mean to wed.
The dumb ones never think of looking that far ahead.
That's why the dumber they come, the better I like 'em,
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love.

Oh, the dumber they come, the better I like 'em,
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love.

The smart girl's speaking Greek and other languages too,
But the dumb girl's only language is, whose poochy-poochy is you?
Oh, the saps that I've met have won beauty prizes.
They look like angels sent from above.

You start as squeezing clever girls, you're soon on the shelf,
But when you're with dumb Doris you can just be yourself.
Oh, the dumber they come, the better I like 'em,
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love.
