Club Havana Page #2

---

Before I marry,

I'm going to think it over for days.

Sometimes, when love comes along,

you can't do much thinking.

And here's a little tip, honey.

When you order tonight,

remember.

Young interns can't afford

girls with big appetites,

specially in a place like this.

Do you think he'd bring me here

if he couldn't afford?

Well, you bought a dress

you couldn't afford.

He's here!

Am I alright?

Take it easy,

you look just right.

I'll wait till he's not looking

and then I'll pretend I've just got here.

Take it easy.

Hello, Bill.

- Hello, Lucy.

- Sorry I'm late.

I've just got here myself,

I was detained at the hospital.

- An operation?

- An emergency.

Gosh, I hope you didn't rush it

because of me.

Don't worry about that, Lucy. All I did

was stand by and help the surgeon.

- Doctor Porter.

- Good evening, doctor.

Yes, we have your reservation.

- How about a drink at the bar?

- I'd love it.

You had me worried for a minute

when I couldn't see you.

- I wouldn't break a date with you, Bill.

- Your gown is very becoming.

- Do you like it?

- Yes, I do.

- What are you drinking?

- You do the ordering.

Two bacardis, please.

You start.

Darling, your drink! You're not drinking

what we always have together.

I've been on Martinis lately.

Don't sound so defiant!

There's no law against it?

- The table is ready, Mr. Norton.

- Thank you. Come on, Ros.

Oh, Tico Tico, tick.

Oh, Tico Tico, tock.

This Tico Tico,

he's the cuckoo in my clock.

And when he says "cuckoo",

he means it's time to woo.

It's Tico time for all the lovers

in the block.

I've got a heavy date,

a tte--tte at eight.

So speak, oh Tico,

tell me is it getting late?

If I'm on time, "cuckoo",

but if I'm late, "woo-woo"!

The one my heart is gone to

may not want to wait!

For just a birdie,

and a birdie who goes nowhere.

He knows of every lover's lane

and how to go there.

For in affairs of the heart,

my Tico's terribly smart.

He tells me:

"Gently, sentiment'ly at the start!"

Oh, oh, I hear my little

Tico Tico calling,

because the time is right

and shades of night are falling.

I love that not-so-cuckoo

cuckoo in the clock,

Tico Tico Tico Tico Tico tock!

You always have the gayest crowd.

I feel completely young

when I come to the Club Havana.

You are very kind, madame.

- Mr. Rogers is waiting.

- Good, good.

And seor Molina, such charm,

such personality.

You know I've always had a secret

desire to have a romance with that man.

No, really, quite seriously.

I feel that a man who understands music,

must understand women.

- Good evening, Mrs. Cavendish.

- Hi, Cliffy.

We're like delicate instruments,

you know.

And it's the way we're handled
