Andrew Lloyd Webber - She'd Be Far Better Off With You lyrics

ALEX I should never have come back here... GEORGE Oh, don't talk such nonsense! ALEX I'll bow out now -- It's the decent thing to do. GEORGE Don't be absurd. ALEX I'm a disaster... GEORGE Oh, come, come! ALEX ...It wouldn't last a week -- She'd be far better off with you. GEORGE You two have your lives before you. ALEX It would end in murder... GEORGE I'm too old for her -- It's high time I withdrew. ALEX Your place is here. GEORGE The jowls are dropping... ALEX It's the light. GEORGE ...The paunch needs propping up -- She'd be far better off with you. BOTH Your words are generous and selfless, But alas untrue -- She'd be far better off with you. ALEX You are steeped in wit and wisdom. GEORGE Well, I've learnt the odd thing... ALEX You could teach George Bernard Shaw A thing or two! GEORGE I had a go... ALEX You've dined with Garbo... GEORGE Only twice. ALEX ...Translated "La Boheme" -- She'd be far better off with you. GEORGE You're atheletic. ALEX You're distinguished. GEORGE You don't cheat at croquet. ALEX You're more seasoned. GEORGE You can skate. ALEX You're in "Who's Who". GEORGE Just half an inch. ALEX We're talking drivel. GEORGE So we are. BOTH Can't we be civilized? She'd be far better off with you. Your words are generous and selfless, But alas untrue. It's only Rose that matters! Just take a look; there's no comparison Between us two -- She'd be far better off with you!
