Nina - Noel Coward and Orchestra[00:00:00]

Señorita Nina, from Argentina,[00:00:12]

Knew all the answers[00:00:15]

Although her relatives[00:00:17]

And friends were perfect dancers[00:00:18]

She swore she'd never dance a step until she died[00:00:20]

She said, "I've seen too many movies,[00:00:24]

And all they prove is too idiotic.[00:00:26]

They all insist that South America's exotic[00:00:29]

Whereas it couldn't be more boring if it tried."[00:00:33]

She added firmly that she hated[00:00:37]

The sound of soft guitars beside a still lagoon[00:00:39]

She also positively stated[00:00:43]

That she could not abide a Southern moon[00:00:46]

She said "I hate to be pedantic[00:00:50]

But I'm driven nearly frantic[00:00:51]

When I see that unromantic,[00:00:53]

Sycophantic lot of sluts[00:00:55]

Forever wriggling their guts.[00:00:58]

It drives me absolutely nuts."[00:01:01]

She refused to Begin The Beguine[00:01:05]

When they requested it[00:01:08]

And she made an embarrassing scene[00:01:12]

If anyone suggested it[00:01:15]

For she detested it.[00:01:18]

Though no one ever[00:01:24]

Could be keener than little Nina[00:01:25]

On quite a number of very eligible[00:01:28]

Men who did the rhumba[00:01:31]

When they proposed to her[00:01:33]

She simply left them flat.[00:01:34]

She said that love should be impulsive,[00:01:37]

But not convulsive[00:01:41]

And syncopation[00:01:42]

Had a discouraging effect on procreation[00:01:44]

And that she'd rather read a book[00:01:47]

And that was that.[00:01:49]

She declined to Begin The Beguine[00:01:56]

When they besought her to[00:01:58]

And with language profane and obscene[00:02:02]

She cursed the man who taught her to[00:02:04]

She cursed Cole Porter too.[00:02:08]

From this its fairly clear that Nina,[00:02:14]

In her demeanour[00:02:16]

Was so offensive that when[00:02:18]

The hatred of her friends grew too intensive[00:02:20]

She thought she'd better beat it while[00:02:23]

She had the chance[00:02:24]

After some trial and tribulation,[00:02:27]

She reached the station[00:02:31]

And met a sailor,[00:02:33]

Who had acquired a wooden leg in Venezuela[00:02:34]

And so she married him,[00:02:37]

Because he couldn't dance.[00:02:39]

There surely never could've been a[00:02:42]

More irritating girl than Nina[00:02:44]

They never speak in Argentina[00:02:48]

Of this degenerate bambina[00:02:52]

Who had the luck to find romance[00:02:55]

But resolutely wouldn't dance.[00:03:00]

She wouldn't dance[00:03:08]
