The Lyrics

Ankles seen 'cause skirts gone high
Discreet Victorians pained.
"Can't be mountin' those hems, fie!"
Detectors of hose declaim:

"Whor-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-ores be ya,
Skin repels us, dames, oh,
"Whor-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-ores be ya,
Skin repels us, say no."

Stunned when brevihems they see
Stymied mirth when ankles swing.
Stunned some more if they see knee
"Vice and porn, this lewd showing!"

"Whor-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-ores be ya,
Skin repels us, dames, oh,
"Whor-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-ores be ya,
Skin repels us, say no."

Think the Vics. didn't get laid?
Check "The Pearl" on idle days.
By today's standards it's staid
Butt [sic] they really loved bum flays.

"Whor-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-ores be ya,
Skin repels us, dames, oh,
"Whor-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-or-ores be ya,
Skin repels us, say no."
