You Must Meet My Wife
作詞:Stephen Sondheim
So? So Well, I think it's about time to talk about my wife, don't you? To better still, complain Both, I expect
She lightens my sadness, she livens my days She bursts with a kind of madness, my well ordered ways My happiest mistake, the ache of my life You must meet my wife
She bubbles with pleasure, she glows with surprise Disrupts my accustomed leisure and ruffles my ties I don't know even know quite how it began You must meet my wife, my Anne
One thousand whims to which I give in Since her smallest tear turns me ashen I never dreamed that I could live in So completely demented, contented a fashion
So sun like, so winning, so unlike a wife I do think that I'm beginning to show signs of life Don't ask me how at my age one still can grow If you met my wife, you'd know
Dear Fredrik, I'm just longing to meet her sometime
She sparkles, how pleasant, she twinkles, how nice Her youth is a sort of present whatever the price The incandescent, what the love light of my life, yes You must meet my wife, yes, I must, I really must, now
She flutters, how charming, she twitters my word She floats, isn't that alarming? What is she, a bird? She makes me feel I'm what, a very old man, yes, no, no? But I must meet your Gertrude, my Anne, sorry, Anne 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
She loves my voice, my walk, my mustache The cigar, in fact, that I'm smoking She'll watch me puff until it's just ash Then she'll save the cigar butt Bizarre, but you're joking
She dotes on your dimple My snoring, how dear The point is she's really simple Yes, that much seems clear
She gives me funny names, like? Old dry as dust, wouldn't she just? You must meet my wife Yes, I must, yes, I must
A sea of whims that I submerge in Yet so lovable in repentance Unfortunately still a virgin But you can't force a flower Don't finish that sentence
She's monstrous, she's frightened Unfeeling, unversed She'd strike you as unenlightened No, I'd strike her first
Her reticence, her apprehension Her crust, no, yes, no, Fredrik You must meet my wife Let me get my hat and my knife
What was that? I must meet your wife Yes, you must, yes, I must
