Manhattan Transfer - Meet Benny Bailey слова песни
Let me introduce youI`ve heard that boredom`s entered your lifeAnd you`re feelin` real lowHave you met Benny Bailey?Well he`s a fella that you should knowThey tell me lassitude`s has laid you lowAn` you`re losin` your gripyou must meet Benny BaileyAt least he`s somebody who is hipTo cure an ennui, you need a bon nuitIt`s part o` the joie de vieAnd his attention, I`m loathe to mentionIs, incident`ly, availableAnd so if providence should decreeWho`ll stand in the waySo you`ll meet Benny BaileyAnd you`ll remember your lucky dayBackground Vocals: Once you`ve metYou won`t forgetNo stuffBenny`s tough(Repeat 1,2,3)This could be your lucky dayIncident`ly, he`s the sortTho` seen at courtCarries an awful lotta weightIn many less royal quartersFilled with less than regal daughtersQuite the quixotic Romeo whom every Filly`ll know because they find hisReputation wherever they goWhether it`s hereOr whether it`s in another boudoirWhee!He`s such a scandal, reallyT` handle him demands a savoir fairerAnd a great indulgence rarerThan any that I`ve encountered surveyin` the sceneBut never mind, I`ll explain it laterThe fact is that he`s always ready to pleaseAnd that`s aroused a lot o`chatterBut it really doesn`t matter, not to himNo siree! It`s `bout as big t`him as any fleaHe`s gotta be maitre`dOr so it seems to meWait`ll y`meet, you`ll see what I`m sayin`Background Vocals: Meet this catHe`s where it`s atThat`s right, outta sightBenny BaileyHe`s no slouchFor this I`ll vouchHe`s cool, he`s no foolTo cure an ennuiYou need a bon nuitIt`s part of the joie de vieHe`s the kind o`cat people hear aboutBut in a second-handed wayThat there`s nothing really clear aboutLet me introduce youI`ve heard that boredom`s entered your lifeAnd you`re feelin` real lowHave you met Benny Bailey?Well he`s a fella that you should knowThey tell me lassitude`s has laid you lowAn` you`re losin` your gripyou must meet Benny BaileyAt least he`s somebody who is hipWe`re glad you got to meet Benny BaileyI`m happy fin`lly meeting with you
