Ain't It Romantic?

Verse

KAY:
LisTen to a dream -
Came to me
With a lovely theme,
As you'll see;
Made me very happy;
In it was as a chappie
Who was handsome as could be.
Girls along the way
Used to sigh;
But he wouldn't play -
He's pass them by.
Their glances all were futile;
Love he never knew till
One fine day I caught his eye.

lst Refrain

I met him and he met me-
Oh gosh, oh gee!

SHORTY:
Ain't it romantic?

KAY:
He was shy and so was I,
Oh me, oh my!

SHORTY:
Ain't it romantic?

KAY:
I began to blush,
He began to flush.
All the noisy world was a-hush.
Then he grabbed me. Oh, what charms
Were in his arms!

SHORTY:
Ain't it romantic?

KAY:
Very soon the month of June -
A wedding tune -

SHORTY:
Ain't it romancic?

KAY:
Then a little cottage fair -
Everything so lovely there!
But my castles went up in smoke
At the moment that I awoke.
I was nearly frantic -

SHORTY:
Yes, but ain't it romancic, dear?

2nd Refrain

POLICEMAN:
Oh, how happy we shall be!

MAID:
Oh gosh, oh gee! Ain't it romancic?

POLICEMAN:
We'll be wealthy, too, says I.

MAID:
Oh me, oh my! Ain't it romantic?

POLICEMAN:
You shall be a queen
Whose like was never seen.

MAID:
Can I have a sewing machine?

POLICEMAN:
You'll be through with broom and sink,
And you'll wear mink.

MAID:
Ain't it romantic?

POLICEMAN:
Lots of pinkish underthings
And di'mond rings -

MAID:
Ain't it romantic?

POLICEMAN:
Then we'll have a private yacht
Seven castles and what not -

[He disappears]

MAID:
But my castles went up in smoke
At the moment that I awoke.
I was nearly frantic -
Oh, but ain't it romantic, dear?
