The Lady Loves Me

(duet with ann-margaret)

(words & music by tepper - bennett)

She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me not

She loves me, she loves me, she loves me

The lady loves me and it shows

In spite of the way she turns up her nose

I'm her ideal, her hearts desire

Under that ice she's burning like fire

She'd like to cuddle up to me

She's playing hard to get

The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet



The gentleman has savoir-faire

As much as an elephant or a bear

I'd like to take him for a spin

Back to the zoo to visit his kin

He's got about as much appeal as a soggy cigarette

The lady loathes him but he doesn't know it yet



The lady's got a crush on me

The gentleman's crazy obviously

The lady's dying to be kissed

The gentleman needs a psychiatrist

I'd rather kiss a rattlesnake

Or play russian roulette

The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet



She's falling fast she's on the skids

Both of his heads are flipping their lids

Tonight she'll hold me in her arms

I'd rather be holding hydrogen bombs

Will someone tell this romeo

I'm not his juliet

The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet



She wants me

Like poison ivy

Needs me

Like a hole in the head

Everyone can see she's got it bad

He's mad!

The gentleman is an egotist

I'm simply aware i'm hard to resist

He's one man i could learn to hate

How's about having dinner at eight

I'd rather dine with frankenstein

In a moonlight tete-a-tete

The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet



Oh yes she loves me

Dig that shrinking violet

Oh she really loves me

Here's one gal you'll never get

She lo- lo- loves me

Would you like to make a bet

I said the lady loves me

The gentleman's all wet
