Human Again

Ah human again

Human again

Yes, think of what that means

I'll be cooking again

Be good-looking again

With a mademoiselle on each arm

When I'm human again

Only human again

Poised and polished and gleaming with charm

I'll be courting again

Chic and sporting again

Which should cause severance husbands alarm

I'll hop down off the shelf

And toute suite be myself

I can't wait to be human again

When we're human again

Only human again

When we're knickknacks and what not no more

When we're human again, good and human again

O, cherie, won't it all be top drawer?

I'll wear lipstick and rouge

And I won't be so huge

Why, I'll easily fit through that door

I'll exude savoir faire

I'll wear gowns, I'll have hair

It's my prayer to be human again

When we're human again, only human again

When the world once more starts making sense

I'll unwind, for a change

Really that'd be strange

Can I help it if I'm tense

In a shack by the sea, I'll sit back, sipping tea

Let my early retirement commence

Far from fools made of wax, I'll get down to brass tacks and relax

When I'm human again

So sweep the dust from the floor

Let's let some light in the room

I can feel, I can tell someone might break the spell any day now

Shine up the brass on the door

Alert the dust pail and broom

If it all goes as planned our time may be at hand any day now

Open the shutters and let in some air

Put these here and put those over there

Sweep up the years, the sadness and tears and throw them away

We'll be human again, only human again

When the girl finally sets us all free

Cheeks a-blooming again, we're assuming again

We'll resume our long-lost joie de vivre

We'll be playing again, holidaying again

And we're praying it's ASAP

We will push, we will shove

They will both fall in love

And we'll finally be human again

We'll be dancing again

We'll be twirling again

We'll be whirling around with such ease

When we're human again

Only human again

We'll go waltzing those old one-two-threes

We'll be floating again!

We'll be gliding again!

Stepping, striding as fine as you please

Like a real human does

I'll be all that I was

On that glorious morn

When we're finally reborn

And we're all of us human again
