You can hear this recording at YouTube:


IT'S ILLEGAL, IT'S IMMORAL, OR IT MAKES YOU FAT.
As sung by the Beverley Sisters

CHORUS: It's illegal, it's immoral, or it makes you fat.
Oh, it really doesn't matter what you're aiming at.
If it's something you enjoy, you can be certain that
It's illegal, it's immoral, or it makes you fat.

There there are many philosophers who will agree
That the best things in life are absolutely free,
But you're bound to find out before you go too far,
If it happens to be fun, the chances are—CHORUS

If you shoot the tax collector who plagues you all your life,
If you kiss a pretty girl when you have an ugly wife,
If you can't look a treacle pudding in the eye,
Then you might as well lay down and die. CHORUS
