letra de perfectly marvellous - cabaret
[sally (spoken)]
i think people are perfectly marvellous, i really do, cliff.
don’t you? i don’t think people should have to explain
anything. for example, if i should paint my fingernails green
and it just so happens i do paint them green, well, if anyone
should ask me why, i say: ” i think it’s pretty!” (“i think
it’s pretty,” i reply.) so, if anyone should ask about you
and me, 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:
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 i knew 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)]
sally, i’m afraid this wouldn’t work out. you’re much
too distracting.
[sally (spoken)]
distracting? no, inspiring!
she tell 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 (spoken)]
sally- i just can’t afford… do you have any money?
[sally]
a few marks… six!
[cliff]
oh, god!
[sally]
oh, please, cliff- just for a day or two? please!
[cliff]
i… met… this…
truly remarkable girl
in this really incredible town,
and she skillfully managed
to talk her way in to 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.
