Loading...

[senex]
why did he look at her that way?

[hero]
why did he look at her that way?

[senex & hero]
must be my imagination

[senex]
she’s a lovely blooming flower, he’s just a sprout–
impossible!

[hero]
she’s a lovely blooming flower, he’s all worn out–
impossible!

[senex]
just a fledgeling in the nest…

[hero]
just a man who needs a rest…

[senex]
he’s a beamish boy at best

[hero]
poor old fellow!

[senex]
he’s a child, and love’s a test he’s too young to p-ss–
imp-ssible!

[hero]
he has asthma, gout, a wife, lumbago and gas–
irascible!

[senex]
romping in the nursery…

[hero]
he looks tired…

[senex]
son, sit on your father’s knee

[hero]
father, you can lean on me

[senex & hero]
him? impossible!

[hero]
but why did she wave at him that way?

[senex]
why did she wave at him that way?

[senex & hero]
could there be an explanation?

[hero]
women often want a father, she may want mine–
it’s possible!

[senex]
he’s a handsome lad of twenty
i’m…thirty-nine–
it’s possible!

[hero]
older men know so much more…

[senex]
in a way, i’m forty-four…

[hero]
next to him, i’d seem a bore

[senex]
all right, fifty!

[hero]
then again, he is my father;
i ought to trust–
impossible!

[senex]
then again, with love at my age
sometimes it’s just
impossible!

[hero]
with a girl i’m ill at ease…

[senex]
i don’t feel well…

[hero]
sir, about those birds and bees–

[senex]
son, a gl-ss of water, please

[senex & hero]
the situation’s fraught
fraughter than i thought
with horrible, impossible, possibilities!
