Mad About the Boy -Gertrude Lawrence I met him at a party just a couple of years ago He was rather over hearty and ridiculous But as I'd seen him on the screen He cast a certain spell I basked in his attraction for a couple of hours or so His manners were a fraction too meticulous If he was real or not I couldn't tell But like a silly fool I fell Mad about the boy I know it's stupid to be mad about the boy I'm so ashamed of it but must admit The sleepless nights I've had about the boy On the silver screen He melts my foolish heart in every single scene Although I'm quite aware that here and there Are traces of the cad about the boy Lord knows I'm not a fool girl I really shouldn't care Lord knows I'm not a schoolgirl In the flurry of her first affair Will it ever cloy this odd diversity of misery and joy I'm feeling quite insane and young again And all because I'm mad about the boy I'm hardly sentimental Love isn't so sublime I have to pay my rental I can't afford to waste much time If I could employ A little magic that would finally destroy This dream that pains me and enchains me But I can't because I'm mad about the boy编辑于2024/01/10更新
