She Loves Me Soundtrack Lyrics
- Prelude and Good Morning, Good Day Lyrics
ARPAD:
Good morning!
SIPOS:
Good day!
ARPAD:
How are you this beautiful day?
Isn't this a beautiful morning?
SIPOS:
Very!
ARPAD:
Hey, Sipos, how's this?...
SIPOS:
That's a very elegant pose,
But is all that elegance necessary?
ARPAD (speaking): And why not? I represent Maraczek, don't I?
We're not a butchershop or a hardware store--we're a parfumerie!
And that means we're...we're...
SIPOS (singing):
We're stylish.
ARPAD:
That's it!
SIPOS:
With a quiet dignity.
ARPAD:
Yes, and we get the tilt of our hats right.
SIPOS:
That's right!
ARPAD:
When I ride my bike,
People see what Maraczek's like,
So I think it's very important that I look my best.
[ILONA enters.]
ILONA:
Good morning!
SIPOS & ARPAD:
Good day!
ILONA:
How are you this glorious day?
Have you seen a lovelier morning?
SIPOS & ARPAD:
Never!
ILONA:
It's too nice a day to be inside shuffling soap;
I have no more energy whatsoever.
[KODALY enters]
KODALY:
Good morning!
SIPOS, ARPAD & ILONA
Good day!
KODALY:
How are you this radiant day?
What a rare magnificent morning!
SIPOS & ARPAD:
Is it?
KODALY (to ILONA):
Good morning, my dear! How are you this ravishing day?
Do you know, you've never looked more exquisite.
ILONA:
Thank you, kind sir.
KODALY (speaking): What a lovely dress!
ARPAD: It's the same one she had on yesterday, Mr. Kodaly.
[GEORG enters]
GEORG (singing):
Good morning!
THE OTHERS:
Good day!
GEORG:
Isn't that a beautiful sky?
What a perfect sample of summer weather!
It's too nice a day to be indoors counting out change.
What a waste of holiday weather!
All together,
Let's all run away.
ILONA:
Wouldn't it be something if we all took off from work?
SIPOS:
Leaving Mr. Maraczek without a single clerk!
ARPAD:
Why not have a picnic?
SIPOS:
I could bring my wife's preserves.
KODALY:
Champagne might be nice with hot hors d'oeuvres!
ALL:
It's too nice a day to be stuck inside of a store.
We could all be getting our summer suntan!
It's so nice a day to be dozing under a tree--
SIPOS:
And we'll all be out of a job--
ILONA:
If it costs that much to get suntanned--
SIPOS:
I'll stay untanned.
KODALY:
Pale, but solvent.
ALL:
A picnic--a picnic--
Oh, well.
