<br>

CHIP:<br>

You're awful,<br>

Awful good to look at,<br>

Awful nice to be with,<br>

Awful sweet to have and hold.<br>

You're nothing,<br>

Nothing if not lovely,<br>

Nothing if not dazzling,<br>

Nothing but pure gold!<br>

You're frightening,<br>

Frightening when you say that you might go away;<br>

You're boring,<br>

Boring into my heart to stay.<br>

You're cheap, dear,<br>

Chap at any price dear,<br>

Cheap for such a diamond,<br>

Cheap for such a pearl.<br>

What I said before I'll say again:<br>

You're awful,<br>

Awful nice to be my girl.<br>

<br>

HILDY:<br>

You're old, dear,<br>

Old with worldly wisdom,<br>

Old like Gorgonzola,<br>

Old like vintage France champagne,<br>

You're so-so,<br>

So-so kinda charming,<br>

So-so kind of witty,<br>

So I can't explain!<br>

<br>

CHIP:<br>

Can't stand you,<br>

I can't stand you to give some fellow the eye;<br>

Can't see you<br>

In the arms of another guy<br>

Who needs you<br>

Needs you to distraction,<br>

Needs you till he's crazy,<br>

Needs you rain or shine.<br>

<br>

BOTH:<br>

I'm the one who needs you and I think you're awful,<br>

Awful nice to say you're mine!<br>

<br>
