lirik lagu perfectly marvelous – john kander

[sally, spoken]
if anyone should ask you about me one day cliff
you have two alternatives:
you can either say “oh, yes, it’s true. we’re living in delicious sin.” or you can simple tell the truth, and say

[sally]
i met this perfectly marvellous girl
in this perfectly wonderful place
as i lifted a gl-ss to the start of a marvellous year
before you knew it she called on the phone, inviting
next moment i was no longer alone
but sat reciting
some perfectly beautiful verse
in my charming american style
how i dazzled her senses
was truly no less than a crime
now i’ve this perfectly marvelous girl
in my perfectly beautiful room
and we’re living together
and having a marvellous time

[cliff, spoken]
ah sally, i’m afraid it wouldn’t work
you’re much too distracting

[sally, spoken]
distracting? no, inspiring!

[sally]
she tells me perfectly marvellous tales
of her thrillingly scandalous life
which i’ll probably use
as a chapter or two in my book
and since my stay in berlin was to force creation
what luck to fall on a fabulous source
of stimulation!
and perfectly marvellous too
is her perfect agreement to be
just as still as a mouse
when i’m giving my novel a whirl
yes, i’ve a highly agreeable life
in my perfectly beautiful room
with my nearly invisible
perfectly marvellous girl

[cliff]
i… met… this
truly remarkable girl
in this really incredible town
and she sk!llfully managed
to talk her way into my room

[sally]
oh, cliff!

[cliff]
i have a terrible feeling i’ve said
a dumb thing
beside, i’ve only got one narrow bed

[sally]
we’ll think of something

[cliff]
and now this wild, unpredictable girl

[sally]
and this perfectly beautiful man

[both]
will be living together and having a marvellous life!
