How About You

When a girl
Meets boy
Life
Can be a joy
But the note
They end on
Will depend
On little pleasures
They will share
So let us compare

I like
New York in June
How about you?
I like
A Gershwin tune
How about you?
I love a fireside
When a storm is due
I like potato chips
Moonlight
And motor trips
How about you?

I'm mad
About good books
Can't get my fill
And
Franklin Roosevelt's
Looks
Give me a thrill
Holding hands
In the movie show
When all
The lights are low
May not be new
But I like it
How about you?

I like
Jack Benny's jokes
To a degree
I love
The common folks
That includes me
I like
To window shop
On 5th Avenue
I like
Banana splits
Late supper
At the Ritz
How about you?

I love
To dream of fame
Maybe I'll shine
I'd love to see
Your name
Right beside mine
I can see
We're in harmony
Looks
Like we both agree
On what to do
And I like it
How about you?

I'm so delighted
I've ignited
The spark
Within you
Let me continue
To make it burn

With you I will be
Like a Trilby
So let's not dally
Come on Svengali
I've lots to learn

When you're arisin'
Start
Exercisin' daily
For example
Just a sample?
Bend
And touch the floor
Fifty times or more
Ha
A fine start to be
A Bernhardt

A dictionary's
Necessary
But not
For talking
It's used
For walking
The Ziegfeld way
Is this ok?
That's the trick
You're catching
On quickly

Should I take a bow?
A-ho
Let me show you how
Just like partners
On the stage
If you can use
A partner
I'm the right age
