Lyrics

Mrs. Draba
Music by Peter Link
Lyrics by Jacob Brackman

Hey look at me, Mrs. Draba
I’m the kid you used to call “Johnny Dumb”
You said I wasn’t up to the curriculum
And I’d likely wind up as a pool hall bum

You can read about me now in the Millertown Gazette!

Hey look at me, Mrs. Draba
I’m the kid you said belonged behind a plow
But instead of doin’ poorly I’m a-takin’ a bow
And I surely wish that you could get
A load of me now.

Remember when I failed my multiplication?
Remember where you made me stand?
You n-never could o’ g-g-guessed
That b-b-b-boy shhhhakin’ in the corner
Had a destiny so grand – so grand
Well vini vidi vici, now it’s all at my command

If ya never looked at me then Mrs. Draba
Ya better take a look at me now
If ya never looked at me then Mrs. Draba
Ya better take a look at me now.

[Dance Break]

If I’d a believed you, miz draba
I’d a never had the guts to take this job
I’d a never made the heart of a french girl throb
I’d be peelin’ potatoes like an infantry slob

Royal robes – with all the trappin’s
Loyal subjects – cheering clappin’
Wise advisors
And pals for life
A responsible position
A beautiful wife
An appetite for havin’ fun
An’ I ain’t even twenty-one

If you never looked at me then Mrs. Draba
Ya better take a look at me now
Yes, if you never looked at me then Mrs. Draba
Ya better take a look at me now

Too bad old bat
With your bottom side a bulgin’
An’ yer top side flat
Tough beans old bag
You gibble gabble yak yak whistle stop nag

[Dance Break]

If you never looked at me then Mrs. Draba
Ya better take a look,
Yes, ya better take a look
Ya better take a look at me…now!
