The lady loves me

(duet with ann-margaret)
(words & music by tepper – bennett)
She loves me, she loves me not She loves me, she loves me not She loves me, she loves me, she loves me The lady loves me and it shows In spite of the way she turns up her nose Im her ideal, her hearts desire Under that ice shes burning like fire Shed like to cuddle up to me Shes playing hard to get The lady loves me, but she doesnt know it yet The gentleman has savoir-faire As much as an elephant or a bear Id like to take him for a spin Back to the zoo to visit his kin Hes got about as much appeal as a soggy cigarette The lady loathes him but he doesnt know it yet The ladys got a crush on me The gentlemans crazy obviously The ladys dying to be kissed The gentleman needs a psychiatrist Id rather kiss a rattlesnake Or play russian roulette The lady loves me, but she doesnt know it yet Shes falling fast shes on the skids Both of his heads are flipping their lids Tonight shell hold me in her arms Id rather be holding hydrogen bombs Will someone tell this romeo Im not his juliet The lady loves me, but she doesnt know it yet She wants me Like poison ivy Needs me Like a hole in the head Everyone can see shes got it bad Hes mad! The gentleman is an egotist Im simply aware Im hard to resist Hes one man I could learn to hate Hows about having dinner at eight Id rather dine with frankenstein In a moonlight tete-a-tete The lady loves me, but she doesnt know it yet Oh yes she loves me Dig that shrinking violet Oh she really loves me Heres one gal youll never get She lo- lo- loves me Would you like to make a bet I said the lady loves me The gentlemans all wet
