Judy Kuhn - Terrace Duet lyrics

[FLORENCE] This is the one situation I wanted most to avoid Nothing I say will convince him this isn't a trick [ANATOLY] A drink on a clear moonlit night--- I relax, she smiles There's something peculiar going on [FLORENCE] So, through no fault of my own, I'm in it way over my head. Embarra**ed, outnumbered, marooned [ANATOLY] Now she can't be working for them--- I mean us---! She seems to know what she's doing--- But where is he? [FLORENCE] He has to show up. It can't come to nothing. Perhaps it can. [ANATOLY] Maybe he's scared--- But he didn't seem scared in the game [FLORENCE] Oh, I just couldn't care less He can go right ahead, Go and wreck his career, I know I've done my best [ANATOLY] Well, at least she's a good-looking spy [FLORENCE] What if my Russian friend thinks That my plans have nothing to do with the chess. If I don't say something and soon He'll go--maybe I'm on nobody's side [ANATOLY] Listen, I hate to break up the mood How do you say, begin the beguine Haven't you noticed We're still one character short In this idyllic, well-produced scene? [FLORENCE] How could I not, Miss Va**y regrets Anything goes, with your opponent [ANATOLY] Never mind him---I haven't missed him so far Maybe it won't do any harm To struggle on without his charm Funny how all at once I feel Nothing about that meeting matters anymore [FLORENCE] This is the one situation I wanted most to avoid [ANATOLY] My dear opponent--- I really can't imagine why [FLORENCE] You'll think I'm the dangerous kind--- Well I am! [ANATOLY] You, you're not dangerous--- Who could think that of you? [FLORENCE] You---you are so strange--- Why can't you be what you ought to be? [FLORENCE & ANATOLY] You should be scheming, intriguing, too clever by half [ANATOLY] I have to hand it to you--- For you've managed to make me Forget why I ever agreed to this farce. [FLORENCE & ANATOLY] I don't know why I can't think of anything I would rather do Than be wasting my time with someone like you.
