A Flapper Works Here Now

she is opinionated the man told me
with bobbed hair and showing every knee
innovative and daring in ways of the world
I saw her flapping, she was tossed and twirled

I wished I could be so wild, confident and free
she had a kick-a-pooh attitude that I could see
Bee Bop Ah doo, Diddly Dop Dop dee
She has a zippy attitude, that Miss Cee!

shockingly glamorous, with fringe on her hem.
Showing her gams and her feminine whim.
I am supposed to be repulsed, but I am inspired.
She is the prettiest co-worker we’ve ever hired!

I'm so happy you are enjoying your new co-worker, Caren. I figured you were talking about yourself there for a moment.

Hahaha I was inspired by Julie Andrew's role in the old movie "thoroughly modern Millie"
