rate me<br>
ALEX<br>
I should never have come back here...<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
Oh, don't talk such nonsense!<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
I'll bow out now --<br>
It's the decent thing to do.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
Don't be absurd.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
I'm a disaster...<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
Oh, come, come!<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
...It wouldn't last a week --<br>
She'd be far better off with you.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
You two have your lives before you.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
It would end in murder...<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
I'm too old for her --<br>
It's high time I withdrew.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
Your place is here.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
The jowls are dropping...<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
It's the light.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
...The paunch needs propping up --<br>
She'd be far better off with you.<br>
<br>
BOTH<br>
Your words are generous and selfless,<br>
But alas untrue --<br>
She'd be far better off with you.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
You are steeped in wit and wisdom.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
Well, I've learnt the odd thing...<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
You could teach George Bernard Shaw<br>
A thing or two!<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
I had a go...<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
You've dined with Garbo...<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
Only twice.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
...Translated "La Boheme" --<br>
She'd be far better off with you.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
You're atheletic.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
You're distinguished.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
You don't cheat at croquet.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
You're more seasoned.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
You can skate.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
You're in "Who's Who".<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
Just half an inch.<br>
<br>
ALEX<br>
We're talking drivel.<br>
<br>
GEORGE<br>
So we are.<br>
<br>
BOTH<br>
Can't we be civilized?<br>
She'd be far better off with you.<br>
Your words are generous and selfless,<br>
But alas untrue.<br>
It's only Rose that matters!<br>
Just take a look; there's no comparison<br>
Between us two --<br>
She'd be far better off with you!<br>
<br>
