| A line from "The Gentleman Is A Dope" (Allegro) comes to mind immediately - as Emily struggles with the feelings she has for Joe. Slightly drunk, in the rain, trying to get a cab home. The gentleman is a dope, He isn't very smart. He's just a lug You'd like to hug And hold against your heart. The gentleman doesn't know How happy he could be. Look at me, crying my eyes out, As if he belonged to me. He'll never belong to me. I would also quote all of "Everybody's Got A Home But Me" from Pipe Dream. |
