Song 2 Alice's Song Why should life be a tang - led web; a pa - ra - dox of fate? I've lived this mom - ent in many' a dream, It
nev-er should have turned out quite this way. My happ'-iest hour has be - come my worst; It passed in the twink -ling of an eye. Could he per - ceive my un - spok - en - words?
Please let this pain grow less as time goes by. We'd walk at night through moon - lit groves, And gaze at bubb - ling streams.
He'd hold my hand - as time stood still, He'd share the mag-ic mom-ents of my dreams. He'd share my laugh - ter and dry my tears, And know the sec -rets of my heart.
We'd both grow old in - comp - an - ny. Till death drew nigh to tear us both a - part. War spoils the best laid plans of men,
In cru - el twists of fate. And no -one dares say what might have been in a world that's full of so much love and hate. No -one can steal all my hopes and dreams, I'll
wait and love a - noth -er day. If Frank could just know the way that I feel. He'd not let war or dist-ance keep him a - way. Copyright Plays and Songs Dot Com 2004 Do Not Copy
Song 3 Tours of London Town If you would like a light -ning tour of dear old Lon-don town, You could do worse than go by hearse with Bert and Arch-ie Brown, By
day we do a roar -ing trade in silk -lined wood -en box. At night our fam-ous guid-ed tour starts by Saint Cath' rines docks. So, squeak-y clean, chrome's bright sheen, black up-holst-e-ry the best in town.
One in front, two be -hind, one in the front ly-ing down. Our comm-ent'-ry's per-formed with dig-nit-y, just like the Bish-op's fin-est eu-lo-gy. You won't see much but pig-eons and the tower, 'cos we on-ly do five miles an hour.
Song 4 The Club The club, the club, the club, a gen-tle-man's U - to- pi- a, Din-ner at eight and port by the fire with knight and lord and peer. The club, the club, the club, par -a-dise in Bel - gra-vi-a. With sil -ver ser-vice and ser-vants by the score and a tel-e-phone in ev' ry
room. A gen-tle-man's home is his cast - le, his sec -ond home is his club. Where priv' lege lurks at ev' ry turn, his should-ers with duke-dom will rub. Ox-ford brogue, in dul-cit tones ech-o round her marb- led
walls. Stiff upp -er lips and lash-ings of R. P. in the rul - ing class - es sac -red hall - owed halls. The Copyright Plays and Songs Dot Com 2004 Do Not Copy

King Can-ute turned back the waves, he was a Dan-ish bloke. He knew the tide would turn at noon what - ev -er tongue he spoke. Law-yers speak -ing leg -al Lat -in leave their cli-ents ov -er-awed. Rhet -or -ic and pre -ce -dent is sure to make you bored.

should you chance to meet a peer on Vaux-hall Gar-den's ben-ches, Just roll your Rs and round your vowels and do not drop your haitch-es. Copyright Plays and Songs Dot Com 2004 Do Not Copy

Song 12 In a Little Cafe in Vienna In a litt-le ca-fe in Vi - enn-a, At a tab-le by the op-en door, It's there I'd go each day just to while the hours a-way, The air with wine and ros-es' scent was
sweet. Ev' ry Fri -day night the Span -ish dan-cers se-re-na-ded true fla-men-co style. Guit - tars per - cuss-ive strum and the gent -ly beat-en drum blend-ed with the mus-ic all the while. For it takes two to tan-go, two is com-pan -

brace. By the light of man -y glow -ing cand-les She would dance to me and take my hand. A bove the nois-y crowd how my heart would beat a-loud, Clash - ing with the rhy -thm of the band. Fot it takes
two to tan -go, two is com -pan - y, but three's a crowd, Rav-en hair and Span-ish eyes that shine - Be - neath that youth -ful smile there lurks a mag-ic to be -guile, One day I hope your path will cross with mine -
3 Man -y years have passed by in Vi-enn-a, Gone are names and fa-ces I would trust. Through rav -a - ges of war now our
ca-fe is no more, Bombs and shells have turned its bricks to dust. Search -ing vain-ly for my sec-ret loved one, Dark His -pan -ic beaut -y of Sev - ille, And still the wait-ers cries seem to fill the lead-en skies.
Scent of wine and ros-es ling-er still. For it takes two to tan-go, two is com-pan - y but three's a crowd, Rav -en hair and Span -ish eyes that shine. Be - neath that youth-ful smile there lurks a ma-gic to be-guile, One day I hope your path will cross with mine.
