I'm an Ordinary Man - Rex Harrison[00:00:00]
I find the moment that a woman make friends with me, [00:00:00]
She becomes jealous, exacting, suspicious, [00:00:00]
And a damned nuisance. [00:00:00]
And I find the moment I make friends with a woman, [00:00:00]
I become selfish and tyrannical. [00:00:00]
So, here I am, [00:00:00]
A confirmed old bachelor [00:00:00]
And likely to remain so. [00:00:00]
Well, after all, pickering[00:00:00]
I'm an ordinary man[00:00:00]
Who desires nothing more than just an ordinary chance[00:00:00]
To live exactly as he likes and do precisely what he wants[00:00:00]
An average man am I, of no eccentric whim[00:00:00]
Who likes to live his life free of strife[00:00:00]
Doing whatever he thinks is best for him[00:00:00]
Well, just an ordinary man[00:00:00]
But, let a woman in your life [00:00:00]
And your serenity is through[00:00:00]
She'll redecorate your home, from the cellar to the dome[00:00:00]
And then go on to the enthralling fun of overhauling you[00:00:00]
Let a woman in your life[00:00:00]
And you're up against a wall[00:00:00]
Make a plan and you will find [00:00:00]
She has something else in mind[00:00:00]
And so rather than do either, [00:00:00]
You do something else that neither likes at all [00:00:00]
You want to talk of keats or milton[00:00:00]
She only wants to talk of love[00:00:00]
You go to see a play or ballet[00:00:00]
And spend it searching for her glove[00:00:00]
Let a woman in your life [00:00:00]
And you invite eternal strife[00:00:00]
Let them buy their wedding bands [00:00:00]
For those anxious little hands[00:00:00]
I'd be equally as willing [00:00:00]
For a dentist to be drilling [00:00:00]
Than to ever let a woman in my life[00:00:00]
I'm a very gentle man[00:00:00]
Even tempered and good natured [00:00:00]
Who you never hear complain[00:00:00]
Who has the milk of human kindness [00:00:00]
By the quart in every vein[00:00:00]
A patient man am I, down to my fingertips[00:00:00]
The sort who never would, never could[00:00:00]
Let an insulting remark escape his lips [00:00:00]
A very gentle man[00:00:00]
But, let a woman in your life[00:00:00]
And patience hasn't got a chance[00:00:00]
She will beg you for advice, [00:00:00]
Your reply will be concise[00:00:00]
And she'll listen very nicely, [00:00:00]
And then go out and do precisely what she want's[00:00:00]
You are a man of grace and polish[00:00:00]
Who never spoke above a hush[00:00:00]
Now all at once you're using language [00:00:00]
That would make a sailor blush[00:00:00]
Let a woman in your life[00:00:00]
And you're plunging in a knife[00:00:00]
Let the others of my sex tie the knot around their necks[00:00:00]
I prefer a new edition of the spanish inquisition [00:00:00]
Than to ever let a woman in my life [00:00:00]
I'm a quiet living man[00:00:00]
Who prefers to spend the evening [00:00:00]
In the silence of his room[00:00:00]
Who likes an atmosphere as restful [00:00:00]
As an undiscovered tomb[00:00:00]
A pensive man am I of philosophical joys[00:00:00]
Who likes to meditate, contemplate[00:00:00]
Free from humanity's mad inhuman noise[00:00:00]
Just a quiet living man[00:00:00]
But, let a woman in your life[00:00:00]
And your sabbatical is through[00:00:00]
In a line that never ends comes [00:00:00]
An army of her friends[00:00:00]
Come to jabber and to chatter [00:00:00]
And to tell her what the matter is with you![00:00:00]
She'll have a booming boisterous family[00:00:00]
Who will descend on you en mass[00:00:00]
She'll have a large wagnarian mother[00:00:00]
With a voice that shatters glass[00:00:00]
Let a woman in your life[00:00:00]
Let a woman in your life[00:00:00]
I shall never let a woman in my life[00:00:00]
