Lyrics Goodness, Gracious Me! - Peter Sellers, Sophia Loren

Goodness, Gracious Me!

Her:
Oh doctor, I’m in trouble
Him:
Well, goodness gracious me!
Her:
For every time a certain man
Is standing next to me Him:
Mmm?
Her:
A flush comes to my face
And my pulse begins to race
It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
Him:
Oh!
Her:
Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Him:
Well, goodness gracious me!
Him:
How often does this happen?
When did the trouble start?
You see, my stethoscope is bobbing
To the throbbing of your heart
Her:
What kind of man is he To create this allergy?
It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
Him:
Oh!
Her:
Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Him:
Well, goodness gracious me!
Him:
From New Delhi to Darjeeling
I have done my share of healing
And I’ve never yet been beaten or outboxed
I remember that with one jab
Of my needle in the Punjab
How I cleared up beriberi
And the dreaded dysentery
But your complaint has got me really foxed!
Her:
Oh!
Her:
Oh doctor, touch my fingers!
Him:
Well, goodness gracious me!
Her:
You may be very clever
But however
Can’t you see
My heart beats much too much
At a certain tender touch
It goes boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
Him:
I like it!
Her:
Boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Him:
Well, goodness gracious me!
Him:
Can I see your tongue?
Her:
Aaah
Him:
Nothing the matter with it, put it away please
Her:
Maybe it’s my back
Him:
Maybe it is Her:
Shall I lie down?
Him:
Yes!
Her:
Ahhh.
..
Him:
My initial diagnosis
Rules out measles and thrombosis
Sleeping sickness and, as far as I can tell
Influenza, inflammation
Whooping cough and night starvation
And you’ll be so glad to hear
That both your eyeballs are so clear
That I can positively swear
That you are well
Ja-ja, ja-ja-ja-ja!
Her:
Put two and two together
Him:
Four
Her:
If you have eyes to see
The face that makes my pulses race
Is right in front of me Him:
Oh, there is nothing I can do For my heart is jumping too
Both:
Oh, we go boom boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom
Boody-boom boody-boom boody-boom-boom-boom
Her:
Goodness gracious!
Him:
How audacious!
Her:
Goodness gracious!
Him:
How flirtatious!
Her:
Goodness gracious!
Him:
It is me!
Her:
It is you?
Him:
Ah, I’m sorry, it is us!
Both:
Ahhh!
