Louisa - Noel Coward and Orchestra[00:00:00]
Louisa was a movie queen[00:00:08]
Before she'd achieved the age of sweet sixteen[00:00:11]
Long before cagney threw those girls about[00:00:13]
Little louisa tossed her curls about[00:00:17]
Later when the talkies came[00:00:20]
The whole world resounded to her fame[00:00:22]
Each time she married[00:00:25]
Every daily paper carried[00:00:26]
Headlines blazing her name[00:00:28]
Not only headlines[00:00:31]
But photographs and interviews[00:00:32]
Every thing she did was news that held the world in thrall[00:00:34]
Some say she read lines better than marléne could[00:00:37]
No other entertainer could[00:00:40]
Compete with her at all[00:00:41]
But regardless of the fact[00:00:43]
That she could sing and dance and act[00:00:45]
And owned furniture that wasn't little rockery[00:00:47]
And regardless of her gems which were hers not mgm's[00:00:51]
Her life was one long mockery[00:00:55]
Louisa was terribly lonely[00:01:05]
Sucess brought her naught but despair[00:01:09]
She derived little fun[00:01:12]
From the oscars she'd won[00:01:14]
And none[00:01:16]
From her home in bel aire[00:01:18]
She said she was weary of living[00:01:20]
On this bestial terrestial plane[00:01:23]
When friends came to visit[00:01:27]
Their hands she would clutch[00:01:29]
Crying tell me why is it I suffer so much[00:01:31]
Oh if only if only if only[00:01:35]
My life wasn't quite such a strain[00:01:39]
And soon after that she was terribly lonely[00:01:44]
All over again[00:01:48]
Louisa was terribly lonely[00:01:54]
Louisa was terribly sad[00:01:58]
It appears that the cheers that had rung in her ears[00:02:02]
For years had been driving her mad[00:02:06]
She sobbed when men offered her sables[00:02:09]
And moaned when they gave her champagne[00:02:13]
She remarked to her groom on their honeymoon night[00:02:17]
As he tenderly kissed her and switched off the light[00:02:21]
Ohhh if only if only if only[00:02:25]
I'd flung myself out of that plane[00:02:29]
And the very next day she was terribly lonely[00:02:35]
All over again[00:02:39]
Louisa was terribly lonely[00:02:45]
The girl had no fun[00:02:48]
Louisa was tired of it all[00:02:49]
Not a call from anyone[00:02:52]
She gazed like a dazed frustrated sphinx[00:02:54]
At her hundred and eight new tated minx[00:02:56]
And she wrung her hands[00:02:59]
And she beat her breast[00:03:00]
Crying my my my I'm so depressed[00:03:01]
Nobody knew the troubles she'd seen[00:03:03]
Nobody knew but you-know-who[00:03:08]
The tribulations of a movie queen[00:03:10]
So farewell to lovely louisa[00:03:12]
We'll just let life tease her[00:03:16]
Let's leave her searching in vain[00:03:18]
Find someone to explain[00:03:20]
Why destiny[00:03:22]
Singled her out to be[00:03:23]
Only[00:03:24]
Lonely[00:03:25]
Over and over again[00:03:26]
