VERSE
HE:
My features are no gems of regularity,
It's more than charity.
To call them fair.
I'm not so very brilliant, and oh God, oh Gee,
With no kid prodigy
Do I compare.
I have ordinary habits
Like a million Other Babbitts-
My morals never quite come up to scratch,
And tho' I'm as mediocre
As a cup of hotel mocha,
I'm sure you couldn't find a better match.

I'm not so much without you,
But you're a she that needs a he.
Maybe it's me.

But with me you are smart by comparison.
There's something nice about you.
What can it be?
Now, let me see.
Maybe it's me
