Announcer: "The stars of our show, and America's "shiekest" couple, Eddie Sparks and Dixie Leonard!"
|
|
James: I remember you.
|
Bette: I'd like to say that you're in my dreams.
|
James: You're the one who made my dreams come true
|
Bette: You're usually dead,
|
James: a few
|
Bette: without a head,
|
James: kisses ago.
|
Bette: and lots of natives are picking their teeth with your bones.
|
James: I remember, too,
|
Bette: Oh, what a dream!
|
James: a distant bell,
|
Bette: It comes at night and taunts me,
|
James: and stars that fell
|
Bette: and, like your jokes, it haunts me until
|
James: like rain out of the blue.
|
Bette: I'm blue as your face as the last breath leaves you.
|
James: When my life is through,
|
Bette: I'll jump for joy.
|
James: and the angels ask me to recall
|
Bette: and when Winchell asks me to recall
|
who's a chump and a heel.
|
James: the thrill of it all,
|
Bette: Who's the biggest schlemeil?
|
Both: Then I will tell them I remember . . .
|
James: "So, uh, it's my birthday comin' up."
|
Bette: "Yeah, I know, Eddie."
|
James: "But, what do you give a guy that's got everything?"
|
Bette: "Uh, penicillin?"
|
James: "Hmmm, hey Dix? You ever been married?"
|
Bette: "Oh, yeah, Eddie, twice!"
|
James: "Children?"
|
Bette: "No, silly! Grown men! Tell me, Eddie, what's the most romantic thing a woman ever said to you?"
|
James: "Are you sure you're not a cop?"
|
Then I will tell them I remember . . . you.
|
Bette: You
|
James: and you.
