rdf:langString Do Something (1929 song)

rdf:langString "Do Something" (1929) is a song written by Sam H. Stept and Bud Green for the Paramount Pictures film Nothing But the Truth (1929), in which the song was performed by Helen Kane. The scene of Kane singing this song is missing from the only existing print of the movie. Kane also had a hit recording of the song for Victor Records, which she recorded in 1929. The sheet music, bearing Kane's photo, and phonograph record both state that the song is from Nothing But the Truth. The song was also used in the soundtrack of the film Syncopation (1929) where it was sung by Dorothy Lee. Partial lyrics to the song include: There's the moon, way up high,Here are you, and here am I,Oh, do, do, do something!;I got the time and the place, and the place and the time, I know,I got a bench and a park, and a park and a bench, and oh-oh-oh.Oh, come on, honey, oh, come on, do something, Boop-boop-a-doop!,
