[SALLY (spoken)]I think people are perfectly marvellous, I really do, Cliff.Don't you? I don't think people should have to explainanything. For example, if I should paint my fingernails greenand it just so happens I do paint them green, well, if anyoneshould ask me why, I say: " I think it's pretty!" ("I thinkit's pretty," I reply.) So, if anyone should ask about youand me, you have two alternatives: you can either say,"Oh, yes, it's true. We're living in delicious sin." Oryou can simple tell the truth, and say:I met this perfectly marvellous girlIn this perfectly wonderful placeAs I lifted a glassTo the start of a marvellous year.Before I knew she called on the phone,Inviting.Next moment I was no longer alone,But sat recitingSome perfectly beautiful verse,In my charming Amearican style.How I dazzled her sensesWas truly no less than a crime.Now I've this perfectly marvelous girlIn my perfectly beautiful roomAnd we're living togetherAnd having a marvell ous time.[CLIFF (spoken)]Sally, I'm afraid this wouldn't work out. You're muchtoo distracting.[SALLY (spoken)]Distracting? No, inspiring!She tell me perfectly marvellous talesOf her thrillingly scandalous lifeWhich I'll probably useAs a chapter or two in my book.And since my stay in Berlin was to forceCreation,What luck to fall on a fabulous sourceOf stimulation.And perfectly marvellous, too,Is her perfect agreement to beJust as still as a mouseWhen I'm giving my novel a whirl.Yes, I've a highly agreeable lifeIn my perfectly beautiful roomWith 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 girlIn this really incredible town,And she skillfully managedTo talk her way in to my room.[SALLY]Oh, Cliff![CLIFF]I have a terrible feeling I've saidA dumb thing.Be side, I've only got one narrow bed.[SALLY]We'll think of something.
