Translation
Bilingual
I may look simple but I want you to know
I'm full of knowledge
I'm right at home with brainy men
And then my wisdom I show
But when there's clever girls around
I get up and go
Those educated babies are a bore
I'm gonna say what I've said many times before
Oh, the dumber they come
The better I like 'em
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love
A wisenheimer has you meet her folks when you call
The brainless baby always keeps you down in the hall
Oh, the dumbbells I've met
Have won beauty prizes
They look like angels sent from above
A clever girl will want to know if you mean to wed
The dumb ones never think of looking that far ahead
And by the dumber they come
The better I like 'em
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love
Oh, the dumber they come
The better I like 'em
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love
The smart girls speak in Greek and other languages too
But the dumb girl's only language is "Who's poochie-poochie is you?"
All the saps that I've met
Have won beauty prizes
They look like angels sent from above
You start a-squeezing clever girls
You're soon on the shelf
But when you're with dumb Doris
You can just be yourself
Oh, the dumber they come
The better I like 'em
'Cause the dumb ones know how to make love
