What Was a Woman to Do

作曲 : David Yazbek
Last night I met a man beneath a pale
And haunted moon-
A man no woman could refuse.
Bold and assertive with a
Furtive air of mystery.
Magically long of lash,
Tragically short of cash.
As he approached he wore
An aura of nobility.
I wore these Ferragamo shoes.
This was at last, I knew, my
Rendezvous with History.
What was a woman,
What was a woman to do?
And when he smiled he lit the night
With grace and confidence.
His teeth were clean and straight and
White just like a picket fence.
I couldn't look directly at them-
They were that intense.
What was a woman,
What was a woman to do?'
I never realized how long
My heart had been ignored.
He said my name and it rang out just
Like some major chord.
If music be the food of love,
He ate my Smorgasbord.
What was a woman-
What was a woman-
What was a woman to do?
Last night I met a prince
And suddenly my life has changed-
I have a purpose and a cause
(to help my dreamy royal boyfriend.)
He's off rebelling,
And I'm kvelling here,
But never mind.
He's just so- ooo!
So suave it makes you mental
So goddamn continental
Who'd guess that I would be the only
one to whom he'd turn-
This man of Brio
And panache
He gave me romance and the feeling
I was young again.
I gave him hope and strength and
A check made out to cash.
He had the most amazing eyes
That I had ever seen.
He came in with a ticket
For the Second Mezzanine.
I ripped it up and put him right down
There in J-13.
Miss? If you don't mind...
What was a woman-
What was a woman-
What was a woman to do?
