Robert B. Sherman - With a Flair lyrics

Oh it really doesn't matter what I do What I do As long as I do it with a flair What effect a little smoke is What a dash of hocus pocus And a scent of burning sulfur in the air I am a fraud, a hoke, a charlatan, a joke But they love me everywhere! For it really doesn't matter What I do, what I do As long as I do it with a flair! And it doesn't really matter what I say, what I say! As long as I say it with a flair First I rattle off a ready stock of gibberish and poppyco*k And fix you with my best hypnotic stare! With my moans and groans and soporific tones They have cheered my everywhere For it really doesn't matter what I say, what I say I said it when I tell it with a seamless selabin The magicians nursery rhyme Abra - Cadabra! You succumb to it every time! Wave a stick, and each trick, will mystify and disarm In fact, to coin a fitting phrase, it works, like a charm So it really doesn't matter what I brew, what I brew As long as I brew it with a flair Though I've never cast a magic spell I make the motions very well My showmanship is far beyond compare I'm a rogue, a rake, a mountebank, a fake But I do what e'er I dare For it really doesn't matter what I do, what I do You buy my charms and poxes cause they come in fancy boxes To improve your ugly daughter, I've a vial of colored water And my magic incantations can be framed as decorations Though there's really nothing to it, and of course, you all see through it! You love me cause I do it - With a flair!
