The Errol Flynn Blog

Here are the original lyrics of Teasing, as sang by the Beverley Sisters, featuring the Flynnman himself! They can be found at this link, but with the wrong recording! (As Petula might sing/say, It’s a Sign of the Times.)

Mummy told me she would scold me
If a boy I kissed
But I can’t resist teasin’
Always gets `em, it upsets `em
But what can I do
‘Cause it’s all so new, teasin’

Now the good book says that nothing repays
The harm a life of sin does
But I must confide, we can’t decide
‘Til we find what it is that Errol Flynn does

Mummy told me she would scold me
If a boy I kissed
But I can’t resist teasin’

At the riding school, the teacher was cool
And he seemed a harmless person
But after the ride he took me aside,
And was I glad I kept my spurs on

Always gets `em, it upsets `em
But what can I do
‘Cause it’s all so new, teasin’

There’s a boy I like who likes to hike
But in no uncertain language
I refused to stop when he said he’d drop
If he didn’t have a nibble at my corned beef sandwich

Mummy told me she would scold me
If a boy I kissed
But I can’t resist teasin’

Now it’s love that makes this world go round
‘Cause we all love hanky-panky (Do ya)
