by then
i should have the chance
by fiddling to entrance
and fill with ardor
of romance
the prettiest girls
in france
and while i'd play
my yearning eyes
would say
to you, beautiful lady
i raise my eyes
my heart,
beautiful lady
to your heart sighs
come, come,
beautiful lady
to paradise
ere the sweet,
fly, fly, beautiful lady
on light, bright wings
while the rapture of music
around us swings
dream, dream
dream and forget
care, pain, useless regret
come, come,
beautiful lady
in my arms sing
Don't wiggle.
Punk,
what possesses you?
You've been eating
that fern again, haven't you?
Oh, you bad cat.
Go on, now, punk.
Go on.
Come on. Come on.
Come on.
Don't let punk up,
clinton.
Come on, punk.
Go on down there.
What kind of
haberdashery's all that?
I hate jones
for a name.
Jones is a good name.
Easy to remember,
short to write.
It's too plain.
Papa, you think our name
is really jones?
I wish you were
a changeling, papa,
and our name was
something else.
Don't beorrying
about being
no changeling.
Just aim to amount
to something.
Won't matter
whether your name
is jones or finnegan
or andrew j. Poopaw.
Good wine
needs no bush.
Now, look, get that cat
off the register.
I don't want that hot air
coming up through his fur,
giving me back
my old malaria.
Get him off there!
Sitting around there,
walling up
his old germs.
Punk's clean and healthy
and hasn't any germs.
What good's
a cat anyhow?
How about
throwing him away?
Clinton, you just like
to hear yourself talk.
You don't fool
even punk.
I wish we could
have a dog.
A cat's
so tacky-looking.
Dan weymouth thinks
he's a bright cat,
and he loves you,
clinton.
Who? Dan weymouth?
Oh, clinton,
punk, of course.
Punk loves you.
And well he might
because you've
taught that cat
every blessed thing
he knows.
Come on. Come on.
Jump over there.
Jump.
Loves me
in a pig's patootie.
That's not nice.
Papa, everyone else
has got one,
so why can't we
have a telephone?
Wouldn't have one
if you gave it to me
as a gift.
You'd have felt awful
that day
president cleveland died
if you couldn't have
called up mrs. Litchfield
to tell mama to hang
our flag at half-mast.
How often
do you think
that occasion's
going to arise?
I wish our name
was cleveland.
There's a girl goes
called fentress
serene kerlin.
Queen of the hawaiian
islands' name
is liliuokalani.
I don't know what it
has to do with anything.
All right. Get down.
Oh, mama,
you haven't...
clinton, do you think
you could get the furnace
to give out
a little more heat?
It ain't
the furnace.
It's the coal.
Order a ton
of half nut
and half egg,
and what
do you get?
Ton full
of clinkers.
About
as much heat
as a whale's
hind fin.
I had to get your
father to go do that
so i could tell you
about this skirt.
It's all wrong, mama.
Hazel dawn...
hazel dawn can wear
her skirts
any way she feels
called to,
but i'll not have
you wear any skirt
like that actressy
picture you showed me.
Hazel dawn doesn't live in
wollaston, please remember.
But slit skirts
are...
Are all the rage!
Well, let them be,
but i'll not have you
walk around wollaston...
past all decency.
Oh, mama!
Want people to think
you live in a harem?
But it's how
the dress has to be.
It has to, mama.
It's what gives it
that frenchy touch.
All you'd have to do is
walk up newport avenue
once in that dress
and everyone
