Shaving Cream

I played Benny Bell’s Shaving Cream song to the kids, and now they’ve memorized it and sing it all the time. What have I done?! I hope this doesn’t mean I’m a bad influence on children.

Shaving Cream

by Benny Bell

I have a sad story to tell you

It may hurt your feelings a bit

Last night as I walked in my bathroom

I stepped in a big pile of…
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

I think I'll break off with my girlfriend
Her antics are queer, I'll admit
Each time I say, "Darling, I love you"
She tells me that I'm full of…
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

Our baby fell out of the window
You'd think that her head would be split
But good luck was with her that morning
She fell in a barrel of…
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

An old lady died in a bathtub
She died from a terrible fit
In order to fulfill her wishes
She was buried in six feet of…
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

When I was in France with the army
One day I looked into my kit
I thought I would find me a sandwich
But the darned thing was loaded with…
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen

And now folks my story is ended
I think it is time I should quit
If anyone of you feel offended
Put your head in a bucket of…
Shaving cream, be nice and clean
Shave every day and you'll always look keen
