I find the moment I make friends with a woman[00:00:00]
I become selfish and tyrannical[00:00:03]
So here I am[00:00:05]
A confirmed old bachelor and likely to remain so[00:00:06]
After all Pickering[00:00:10]
I'm an ordinary man[00:00:14]
Who desires nothing more than an ordinary chance[00:00:17]
To live exactly as he likes[00:00:22]
And do precisely what he wants[00:00:25]
An average man am I of no eccentric whim[00:00:28]
Who likes to live his life[00:00:34]
Free of strife[00:00:37]
Doing whatever he thinks is best[00:00:40]
For him[00:00:43]
Just an ordinary man[00:00:47]
BUT Let a woman in your life[00:00:53]
And your serenity is through[00:00:57]
She'll redecorate your home[00:01:00]
From the cellar to the dome[00:01:01]
And then go on to the[00:01:03]
Enthralling fun of overhauling you[00:01:04]
Let a woman in your life and[00:01:08]
You're up against a wall[00:01:11]
Make a plan and you will find[00:01:14]
That she has something else in mind[00:01:16]
And so rather than do either[00:01:17]
You do something else[00:01:18]
That neither likes at all[00:01:19]
You want to talk of Keats and Milton[00:01:23]
She only wants to talk of love[00:01:25]
You go to see a play or ballet[00:01:28]
And spend it searching[00:01:31]
For her glove Let a woman in your life[00:01:32]
And you invite eternal strife[00:01:37]
Let them buy their wedding bands for[00:01:40]
Those anxious little hands[00:01:44]
I'd be equally as willing for[00:01:48]
A dentist to be drilling[00:01:51]
Than to ever let a woman in my life[00:01:52]
I'm a very gentle man[00:01:59]
Even tempered and good natured[00:02:02]
Who you never hear complain[00:02:05]
Who has the milk of human kindness[00:02:07]
By the quart in every vein[00:02:10]
A patient man am I down to my fingertips[00:02:12]
The sort who never could ever would[00:02:17]
Let an insulting remark escape his lips[00:02:24]
Just very gentle man[00:02:31]
But Let a woman in your life[00:02:37]
And patience hasn't got a chance[00:02:40]
She will beg you for advice[00:02:43]
Your reply will be concise[00:02:45]
And she will listen very nicely[00:02:46]
And then go out[00:02:48]
And do exactly what she wants[00:02:49]
You are a man of grace and polish[00:02:52]
Who never spoke above a hush[00:02:55]
All at once you're using language[00:02:58]
That would make[00:03:01]
A sailor blush Let a woman in your life[00:03:02]
And you're plunging in a knife[00:03:07]
Let the others of my sex[00:03:10]
Tie the knot around their necks[00:03:14]
I prefer a new edition of the[00:03:18]
Spanish Inquisition[00:03:20]
Than to ever let a woman[00:03:21]
In my life[00:03:23]
I'm a quiet living man[00:03:28]
Who prefers to spend the evening[00:03:31]
In the silence of his room[00:03:33]
Who likes an atmosphere as restful as[00:03:36]
An undiscovered tomb[00:03:39]
A pensive man am I of philosophical joys[00:03:42]
Who likes to meditate contemplate[00:03:47]
Far for humanities mad inhuman noise[00:03:53]
Just quiet living man[00:04:01]
But let a woman in your life[00:04:08]
And your sabbatical is through[00:04:11]
In a line that never ends comes[00:04:14]
An army of her friends[00:04:16]
Come to jabber and to chatter[00:04:17]
And to tell her what the matter is with you[00:04:19]
She'll have a booming boisterous family[00:04:23]
Who will descend on you en mass[00:04:26]
She'll have a large wagnarian mother[00:04:29]
With a voice that shatters glass[00:04:32]
Let a woman in your life[00:04:35]
Let a woman in your life[00:04:37]
Let a woman in your life[00:04:40]
I shall never let a woman in my life[00:04:56]
