The Gentleman Is a Dope ( from Allegro ) |
The gentleman is a dope, |
A man of many faults, |
A clumsy Joe |
Who wouldn’t know |
A rumba from a waltz. |
The gentleman is a dope |
And not my cup of tea; |
Why do I get in a dither? |
He doesn’t belong to me! |
The gentleman isn’t bright, |
He doesn’t know the score; |
A cake will come, |
He’ll take a crumb |
And never ask for more! |
The gentleman’s eyes are blue, |
But little do they see, |
Why am I beatin' my brains out? |
He doesn’t belong to me! |
He’s somebody else’s problem, |
She’s welcome to the guy! |
She’ll never understand him |
Half as well as I. |
The gentleman is a dope, |
He isn’t very smart; |
He’s just a lug |
You’d like to hug |
And hold against your heart. |
The gentleman doesn’t know |
How happy he could be, |
But look at me cryin' my eyes out |
As if he belonged to me; |
He’ll never belong to me! |
The gentleman doesn’t know |
How happy he could be, |
But look at me cryin' my eyes out |
As if he belonged to me; |
He’ll never ever, |
He’ll never belong to me! |
