The Gentleman Obviously Doesn't Believe lyrics

???

The gentleman obviously doesn't believe

In making love

He shrinks if you mention

A bench in the park for two

It's hard to conceive that he doesn't believe

In stealing a kiss

Like me, and you, and you

The gentleman obviously doesn't indulge

In alcohol

Whenever he lunches

Rum punches are all taboo

It seems he's not cursed with that heavenly thirst

For bottle delights

Like me, and you, and you

He's never been known to gamble

He doesn't take weekend trips

In lover's lane he won't ramble

And a cigarette has never caressed his lips

He frowns on the latest dances

Says jazz is his favourite bore

He doesn't seek life's romances

So I wonder what on earth he is living for

The gentleman obviously doesn't believe

In moonlight walks

Alone with a girl and he'd faint

Yes, that's what he'd do

He's one of those gents who just hasn't the sense

To thrill to a kiss

Like me, and you, and you
