Don Black - George's Flat In Paris lyrics

[ELIZABETH] How you've grown! [ALEX] It's been two years [ELIZABETH] You should have phoned Your uncle isn't here [ALEX] I might have guessed! [ELIZABETH] And such a splendid uniform! [ALEX] (looking around the flat) The same old paintings [ELIZABETH] Madame will be so thrilled to meet you I'll go and tell her [ALEX] "Giulietta Trapani" [ELIZABETH] Life has changed! Since those two met He lives life to the full! [ALEX] Well, good for him! [ELIZABETH] She has made him young again! [ALEX] Where is he now, then? [ELIZABETH] He's doing up the country villa They plan to live there Now, tell me, do you still like omelettes? Won't be a moment! [ALEX] And so he got his wicked way with that Italian girl He hasn't lost his touch [ROSE] Well, hello [ALEX] I should have known Where you were hiding You like the good life George likes trinkets! God, what a fool I was to love you! What was all my searching for? It's never hard to find a who*e! [ROSE] Well, if it makes you happy, think it [ALEX] You scheming b**h [ROSE] The truth is we're a perfect pair [ALEX] Because he's rich [ROSE] Shout and scream I don't care [ALEX] You could have let me know! [ROSE] Your uncle's shown me new horizons [ALEX] Well, didn't I? [ROSE] And as a lover he is perfect too [ALEX] Another lie! [ROSE] He takes his time Unlike you [ALEX] I wasn't good enough? [ROSE] Why can't you listen And come to your senses? It's George I really love George He's made me a Better, fuller, stronger person I have never been as happy! [ALEX] Or, indeed, as wealthy [ROSE] Look, I don't need your uncle's money! And I could have a thousand lovers! Yet I've been faithful and I'm happy More faithful than he'll ever be: It's not as if he's married me! [ALEX] I'd better go I'm sorry It was a shock [ROSE] Try and understand And it won't hurt you so much [ALEX] At least admit you loved me once [ROSE] Of course I did I may even love you now George gives me so much But he gets so little from me But with you I made an impression That will last you a lifetime
