I used to dance my baby girl around the kitchen to get her to sleep to this song. Then got a carved box 30 years later, sayingI iLove you a bushel and a peck. From her, I cried
He bought me the fur thing five winters ago And the gown the following fall Then the necklace, the bag, the gloves, and the hat, That was late '48 I recall Then last night in his apartment He tried to remove them all And I said as I ran down the hall. Take back your mink Take back your pearls What made you think That I was one of those girls? Take back the gown The gloves and the hat I may be down But I'm not flat as all that. I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged Was a token of your esteem But when I think of what you want in exchange It all seems a horrible dream Eek. So take back your mink. To from whence it came And tell them to go, Hollanderize it For some other dame Take back your mink Take back your pearls What made you think That I was one of those girls? I'm screaming: Take back the gown Take back the hat I may be down But I'm not flat as all that. I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged Was a token of your esteem But when I think of what you want in exchange It all seems a horrible dream Eek! Take back your mink Those old worn out pelts And go shorten the sleeves For somebody else.

He bought me the fur thing five winters ago
And the gown the following fall
Then the necklace, the bag, the gloves, and the hat,
That was late '48 I recall
Then last night in his apartment
He tried to remove them all
And I said as I ran down the hall.
Take back your mink
Take back your pearls
What made you think
That I was one of those girls?
Take back the gown
The gloves and the hat
I may be down
But I'm not flat as all that.
I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged
Was a token of your esteem
But when I think of what you want in exchange
It all seems a horrible dream
Eek.
So take back your mink.
To from whence it came
And tell them to go, Hollanderize it
For some other dame
Take back your mink
Take back your pearls
What made you think
That I was one of those girls?
I'm screaming:
Take back the gown
Take back the hat
I may be down
But I'm not flat as all that.
I thought that each expensive gift you'd arranged

Those old worn out pelts
And go shorten the sleeves
For somebody else.
I kept skipping and all I heard was just HALLL HALLL HALLL HALLL HALLL HALLL
They were supposed to be fur coats. Thats why the lyrics say 'shorten the sleeves'.
And, the 'thing' is a mink stole. They have no sleeves.
And they are all supposed to wear hats
This is musical theatre, not a documentary.
A shame the choreographer didn't do more out of a fantastic scene.
