Man Of La Mancha Soundtrack Miscellaneous A Little Gossip SANCHO Your Reverence, could I talk to him? PADRE I'm afraid he won't hear you. SANCHO (moving toward the bed) Then, I won't say much. PADRE And no mention of knight-errantry! SANCHO Of course not. Does one speak of the rope in the house of the hanged? Just a few words... to lighten his heart. A little gossip... a little chat... A tittle idle talk of this and that... I'll tell him all the troubles I have had, And since he doesn't hear, At least he won't feel bad. (to Don Quixote) When I first got home my wife Teresa beat me, But the blows fell very lightly on my back. She kept missing ev'ry other stroke And crying from the heart That while I was gone She'd gone and lost the knack! Of course, I hit her back, Your Grace, but she's a lot harder than I am, and you know what they say... "Whether the stone hits the pitcher or the pitcher hits the stone it's going to be bad for the pitcher" So I've got bruises from here to... (to the Padre) A little gossip... a little chat... A little idle talk of this and that... If no one listens, Then it's just as well, At least I won't get caught in any lies I tell! (to Don Quixote) Oh, I haven't fought a windmill in a fortnight And the humble joys get duller ev'ry day, Why, when I'm asleep a dragon With his fiery tongue a-waggin' Whispers, "Sancho. Won't you please come out and play?" |
