The gentleman is a dope a man of many faults
A clumsy Joe who wouldn't know a Rhumba from a Waltz
The gentleman is a dope and not my cup of tea
(Why do I get in a dither?
He doesn't belong to me!)

The gentleman isn't bright
He doesn't know the score
A Cake will come, He'll take a crumb
And never ask for more
The gentleman's eyes are blue
But little do they see
(Why am I beating my brains out?
He doesn't belong to me!)

He's somebody else's problem
She's welcome to the guy!
She'll never understand him half as well as I
The gentleman is a dope
He isn't very smart
He's just a a lug you like to hug
And hold againsl you heart
The gentleman is a dope doesn't know
How happy he could
Look at me!
Crying my eyes out
As if he belonged to me
Asif
He'll never belong to me
