Marlene Dietrich - Lola

THE WISEST GIRL ON EARTH

En su 115 aniversario natal recordamos a la impar Marlene Dietrich con este pequeño fragmento de un concierto en Australia. Treinta y cinco años después de "El Angel Azul" (1930), la gran estrella alemana interpreta en él una de las canciones insignia de la película en versión inglesa: They call me naughty Lola (Ich bin die fesche Lola), composición de Friedrich Hollaender, a la que Frank Conelly puso letra en inglés.

They call me naughty Lola  (lyrics)

They call me naughty Lola
The wisest girl on earth
At home my pianola
It plays for all it's worth
The boys all love my music
I can't keep them away
So my little pianola
Keeps working night and day

They call me naughty Lola
The wisest girl on earth
At home my pianola
It plays for all it's worth
Now I'll tell you a secret
Don't hammer on the keys
For a little pianissimo
Is always bound to please

Lola, Lola, everybody knows me!
Ask the first man you see
He knows how to find me!
Young men, old men, all fall into my net
They all want me to pet
There's a reason, you bet!

They call me naughty Lola
The wisest girl on earth
At home my pianola
It plays for all it's worth
The boys all love my music
I can't keep them away
So my little pianola
Keeps working night and day

They call me naughty Lola
The wisest girl on earth
At home my pianola
It plays for all it's worth
Now I'll tell you a secret
Don't hammer on the keys
For a little pianissimo
Is always bound to please
