[ELIZABETH]
Low sales, high rent
No sandalwood for scent
Well, pardon my dust
But Arden isn’t folding up her tent
Necessity is the mother of invention
I will think of new things to invent
No silk for bows
No nylon left for hose
American ingenuity can compensate for those
Necessity is the mother of invention
And in war, we must be on our toes
[HELENA]
Launch our new lines
New products made for war
Bold new designs
They’ve never seen before
For sea and then in the airfield
A working women’s corps
The ladies who bolt the rivets
On the airplane factory floor
[ELIZABETH]
Before I call it quits
I’ll give ‘em my two bits
Low sales, high rent
No sandalwood for scent
Well, pardon my dust
But Arden isn’t folding up her tent
Necessity is the mother of invention
I will think of new things to invent
No silk for bows
No nylon left for hose
American ingenuity can compensate for those
Necessity is the mother of invention
And in war, we must be on our toes
[HELENA]
Launch our new lines
New products made for war
Bold new designs
They’ve never seen before
For sea and then in the airfield
A working women’s corps
The ladies who bolt the rivets
On the airplane factory floor
[ELIZABETH]
Before I call it quits
I’ll give ‘em my two bits
