Mountain Duet |
| This is the one situation |
| I wanted most to avoid |
| Nothing I say will convince him |
| This isn’t a trick |
| A drink on clear moonlit night-- |
| I relax, she smiles |
| There’s something peculiar going on |
| So through no fault of my own |
| I’m stuck here to carry the can |
| Embarrassed, uncertain, marooned |
| Now she can’t be working for them-- |
| I mean us-- |
| She seems to know what she’s doing |
| But where is he? |
| He has to turn up |
| He wanted this meeting |
| Didn’t he? |
| Maybe he’s scared |
| But he didn’t seem scared |
| In the game |
| Oh, I just couldn’t care less |
| He can go right ahead |
| Go and wreck his career |
| I know I’ve done my best |
| Well, at least |
| She’s a good looking spy |
| What if my Russian friend |
| Thinks that my plans |
| Are more of an intimate kind? |
| If I don’t say something and soon |
| He’ll go |
| Maybe I’m on nobody’s side! |
| Listen, I hate to break up the mood |
| Get to the point, begin the beguine |
| Haven’t you noticed we are a protagonist short |
| In this idyllic, well-produced scene? |
| He couldn’t wait |
| To join you up here |
| Maybe he walked-- |
| Cable cars scare him |
| Never mind him |
| I haven’t missed him so far |
| Maybe it won’t do any harm |
| To struggle on without his charm |
| Funny how all at once I feel |
| That he can go jump off the mountain-- |
| I won’t care! |
| This is the one situation |
| I wanted most to avoid |
| My dear opponent-- |
| I really can’t imagine why |
| So I am not dangerous then? |
| What a shame |
| No, you’re not dangerous |
| Who could think that of you? |
| You-- |
| You are so strange |
| Why can’t you be |
| What you ought to be? |
| You should be scheming |
| Intriguing |
| Too clever by half! |
| I have to hand it to you |
| For you’ve managed |
| To make me forget |
| Why I ever agreed to this farce |
| I don’t know why |
| I can’t think of anything |
| I would rather do |
| Than be wasting my time |
| On mountains with you |
| Who’d ever think it? |
| Such a very pretty setting |
| Tell me what’s the betting |
| Very pretty plotting, too |
| No matter-- |
| I’ve done all your work for you |
| Freddie |
| Who’d ever guess it? |
| Daughter in collaboration |
| With the very nation |
| Gave her father third degree |
| Where’s Daddy |
| Dead or in the KGB? |
| (spoken) |
| While my second has been curling up with my opponent, I have agreed to new |
| terms with Global Television, which in short means more money-- for you as well, |
| but that can’t be helped. |
| Therefore, this meeting is unnecessary. |
| The match can continue and we don’t have to be friends |
