Ray Charles: The man for me

[Jeanette] [Speaks as she writes ] There is nothing doing at night! [Stops writing ] That's silly! What can I write? [Writes again] How I wish that you could be here! [Stops writing] That's stupid! Can't think! Oh, dear! I wish someone could help me! Writing always makes me nervous! [Maurice] If Mademoiselle forgives me- I am at her service! [Jeanette] Oh! [Maurice] Oh-I'm sorry! Allow me! [Jeanette] It's such a stupid letter! [Maurice] I'll be indebted if you let me help you [Jeanette] Oh, no! I'd be the debtor! What can I write? It's so hard for me. Night after night Is dull as can be. L'm writing to a girlfriend, My little Marie! [Maurice] Let me see! Let me see! Why don't you write this As I dictate it. [She writes as he dictates] I have met the one man, my dear! [Jeanette] Who is it? [Maurice] [continuing to dictate ] On a visit here! I am so excited tonight! [Jeanette] Excited? [Maurice] And delighted! Dear! He is so distinguished and sweet, Very debonair yet discreet! He's the height of fashion! [Jeanette] [continuing to write] My passion's at fever heat! [Maurice] He's so modest all of the while, [Jeanette] Oh, very! [Maurice] With a merry smile. He is made of iron. He's tall. [Jeanette] Gigantic! [Maurice] With romantic style! He's a Julius Caesar in mind With Apollo's beauty combined. So, my little friend, you see He's the very man for me! [Jeanette] I'll sign my name! [Maurice] It' s easy to see This little note Is sweet as can be. It's sure to please your Girlfriend, your Little Marie! Now read it for me, Read it for me! [Jeanette] [reading] I have met a foolish young man [Maurice] Who is it? [Jeanette] On a visit here! I'll get rid of him if I can. [Maurice] I'm choking. [Jeanette] I'm not joking, dear. He is undistinguished and plain! Very unattractive yet vain! And he needs a shaking! [Maurice] I'm taking The first fast train! [Jeanette] All he does is grin like a mule! [Maurice] I'm frowning. [Jeanette] He's a clowning fool! He could never learn how to love! [Maurice] I'll grow to- [Jeanette] He should go to school! He's a simple Simon in mind. To describe his looks is unkind. So, my little friend, you see He is not the man for me.
