Sondheim: Putting It Together (Original Off-Broadway Cast Recording)

[THE OBSERVER]
Yesterday is done
See the pretty countryside
Everybody merrily, merrily
Rolling along
Traveling's the fun
Flashing by the countryside
Making you think merrily, merrily
What can go wrong?
[THE YOUNGER WOMAN]
Lovely
All I am is lovely
Lovely is the one thing I can do
Winsome
What I am is winsome
Radiant as in some dream come true
Oh, isn't it a shame?
I can neither sew nor cook
Nor read or write my name
But I'm happy
Merely being lovely
For it's one thing I can give to you
Ah ha
Ah ah ah ha ha
Ah ah ah ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ah ha
Ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha ha
Ooh hoo hoo
Ha ha ha ha ha
Ooh hoo hoo
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Now Venus would seem tame
Helen and her thousand ships
Would have to die of shame
And I'm happy
Happy that I'm lovely
For there's one thing loveliness can do
It's a gift from me to share with you
