(She) Have you ever really tried to concentrate?

(He) I don't know the meaning of the word.

(She) Then when you think you love a girl you hesitate?

(He) Not too long, for that would be absurd! I know that when
I'm 90 with a long grey beard, I'll still be making up my mind.

(She) Procrastination is a habit to be feared, you will always find.

(He) Some of the time I think I love a brunette.

(She) I know the kind who had a Spanish mother!

(He) Some of the time I love a blond.

(She) Who came from Eden by way of Sweden.

(He) Sometimes they're short, or they may be tall.

(He) They may pass by and sometimes they fall.

(Both) But I love some sort of somebody all of the time.

(He) I have travelled all around this world of ours.

(She) I don't doubt that you've been going some.

(He) And I have sipped the honey from the rarest flowers!

(She) You have sent the flowers and sipped the rum.

(He) In every foreign country I have met my fate.
I've met her so much, I am tired!

(She) Can you remain quite neutral and
to me relate which you most admire?

(He) Some of the time I loved a girl from Berlin.

(She) She was so sweet and pretty and so loving!

(He) Some of the time she came from Spain.

(She) Your heart was full, oh, of throw the bull, oh!

(He) And Italian girls and French I adore!

(She) Now then we know who started the war!

(Both) But I love some sort of somebody all of the time.
