Bennett Tony Experiment Lyrics

Experiment Lyrics

Experiment 

 Tonny Bennett 

 (Cole Porter) 

  

 Note: 

 (I am only giving you the original lyrics, here. 

 There was a revised version for a film, Mississippi Belle, but since the movie


 was never released, I figured you wanted to original sung by a couple of 

 people, including Gertrude Lawrence.) 

  

  

 Before you leave these portals to meet less fortunate souls, 

 There's just one final message I would give to you. 

 You all have learned reliance on the sacred teachings of science 

 So I hope through life you never will decline in spite of philistine defiance


 To do what all good scientists do. 

  

 Experiment. 

 Make it your motto day and night. 

 Experiment and it will lead you to the light. 

 The apple on the top of the tree is never to high to achieve, 

 So take an example from Eve, experiment. 

 Be curious, though interfering friends may frown, 

 Get furious at each attempt to hold you down. 

 If this advice you always employ, the future can offer you infinite joy 

 And merriment. 

 Experiment and you'll see
