[00:00:00] Adelaide's Lament (From "Guys and Dolls") - Faith Prince

[00:00:00] Written by：Frank Loesser

[00:00:02] Look Adelaide

[00:00:02] You're getting yourself upset

[00:00:03] You and I are gonna be alright

[00:00:05] After all we love each other and we're gonna get married

[00:00:07] I don't believe you anymore

[00:00:09] But it's true Aww you'll feel better tomorrow

[00:00:12] C'mon cheer up honey

[00:00:14] Let's see that old smile

[00:00:16] That's my girl

[00:00:17] See ya tomorrow

[00:00:20] It says here the average unmarried female

[00:00:27] Basically insecure

[00:00:31] Due to some looooong frustration may react

[00:00:39] With psychosomatic symptoms

[00:00:42] Difficult to endure

[00:00:45] Affecting the upper respiratory tract

[00:00:54] In other words just from waiting around

[00:00:56] For that plain little band of gold

[00:00:59] A person can develop a cold

[00:01:04] You can spray her wherever you figure the streptococci lurk

[00:01:09] You can give her a shot for whatever she's got

[00:01:12] But it just won't work

[00:01:14] If she's tired of getting the fisheye from the hotel clerk

[00:01:20] A person can develop a cold

[00:01:25] It says here the female remaining single

[00:01:30] Just in the legal sense

[00:01:34] Shows a neuroooootic tendency see note

[00:01:39] Tendency see note

[00:01:42] Oh see note

[00:01:44] Oh oh here we go

[00:01:47] Chronic organic syndromes

[00:01:50] Toxic or hypertense

[00:01:53] Involving the eye the ear the nose and throat

[00:02:01] In other words

[00:02:02] Just from worrying whether the wedding is on or off

[00:02:06] A person can develop a cough

[00:02:11] You can feed her all day with the vitamin A and the Bromo fizz

[00:02:16] But the medicine never gets anywhere near where the trouble is

[00:02:21] If she's getting a kind of a name for herself and

[00:02:24] The name ain't his

[00:02:26] A person can develop a cough

[00:02:31] And furthermore just from stalling and stalling and stalling the wedding triiiip

[00:02:36] A person can develop la grippe

[00:02:42] When they get on the train for Niagara

[00:02:46] And she can hear churchbells chime

[00:02:51] The compartment is air conditioned

[00:02:54] And the mooooooood sublime

[00:03:00] Then they get off at Saratoga

[00:03:03] For the fourteenth tiiiime

[00:03:06] A person can develop la grippe

[00:03:09] La grippe la post nasal drip

[00:03:13] With the wheezes and the sneezes

[00:03:15] And a sinus that's really a pip

[00:03:20] From a lack of community property

[00:03:23] And a feeling she's getting too old

[00:03:25] A person can develop a

[00:03:28] Biiiig baaaad coooooold
