Charity's Soliloquy
作詞:Cy Coleman, Dorothy Fields
Charity, can I remember how this song and dance began? Yes, I can and damn right I can It began, well, anyway you see there was this man Who stopped and asked me if I knew which way was Lexington Avenue
He said, 'I'm gonna Bloomingdale's' I said, 'I'm gonna Bloomingdale's' So we hoofed it over the Bloomingdale's He wanted to buy some jockey shorts
Then he said, 'Miss, would you like a cup of tea Or maybe some seven-up?' I left the tea picked up the tab for the jockey's shorts And the taxicab
He dropped me off and I burnt Boy, let that be a lesson to ya Lower the poem girl, lower the poem But what can you do when he knocks on your door?
'Cause they locked him out of his furnished room 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 So he moves in He moves in with his jockey's shorts and a paper bag Nothing else
He needs toothpaste and a tooth brush And pajama tops He needs razor blades , a razor and a comb Several
He needs sistering and brothering and fathering and mothering He needs a hat to hang up in my flat and call it home In no time at all I find we're very much in love
And I'm blushing like a sentimental slob And he's kissing me and hugging me And all the time he's bugging me to Go out and try to find myself a better paying job
Comes July, it's ninety-eight degrees He wants a coat, he wants a fur line coat [Unverified] While I really didn't begrudge it
When I figured out my budget for that coat I had to dance with something like Eleven hundred jerks Now comes February, ten degrees
I need a coat, need a coat to warm his puddle That I bought so he gives me his old sweater A muffler and a stretcher That I give to him, ha ha ha
The bronchial pneumonia that I caught Then I give him pocket money Poker money, smoking money, skating money Poling money, movie money, haircut money Shoeshine money
Money for a bill from Louis' Bar Money for a bill from Maxi's Bar Money for a bill from Charlie's Bar But will he ask for subway money? Now he wants some subway money
As he turns out The bum wants to go to Florida Come on down Now hear this and get this
Hold this and Amen This big fat heart Ain't gonna be joined apart Ever, ever, ever again
