She`d Be Far Better Off With You — текст песни (Various)

ALEX
I should never have come back here...
GEORGE
Oh, don`t talk such nonsense!
ALEX
I`ll bow out now --
It`s the decent thing to do.
GEORGE
Don`t be absurd.
ALEX
I`m a disaster...
GEORGE
Oh, come, come!
ALEX
..It wouldn`t last a week --
She`d be far better off with you.
GEORGE
You two have your lives before you.
ALEX
It would end in murder...
GEORGE
I`m too old for her --
It`s high time I withdrew.
ALEX
Your place is here.
GEORGE
The jowls are dropping...
ALEX
It`s the light.
GEORGE
..The paunch needs propping up --
She`d be far better off with you.
BOTH
Your words are generous and selfless,
But alas untrue --
She`d be far better off with you.
ALEX
You are steeped in wit and wisdom.
GEORGE
Well, I`ve learnt the odd thing...
ALEX
You could teach George Bernard Shaw
A thing or two!
GEORGE
I had a go...
ALEX
You`ve dined with Garbo...
GEORGE
Only twice.
ALEX
..Translated La Boheme --
She`d be far better off with you.
GEORGE
You`re atheletic.
ALEX
You`re distinguished.
GEORGE
You don`t cheat at croquet.
ALEX
You`re more seasoned.
GEORGE
You can skate.
ALEX
You`re in Who`s Who.
GEORGE
Just half an inch.
ALEX
We`re talking drivel.
GEORGE
So we are.
BOTH
Can`t we be civilized?
She`d be far better off with you.
Your words are generous and selfless,
But alas untrue.
It`s only Rose that matters!
Just take a look; there`s no comparison
Between us two --
She`d be far better off with you!
Leading Lady
MARCEL:
The perfect leading lady:
Unique and true and towering!
Magnetic, overpowering!
The star the crowds adore!
If they could only know you:
Your humor and humility...
Your strength and your fragility...
They`d love you even more...
Tonight was a wonder!
All the dreams we worked for
Have come true!
My shining leading lady!
Bravo, bravo, bravo!
I owe so much to you.
