A Guy Like You
HUGO
Paris, the city of lovers
Is glowing this evening
True, that's because it's on fire
But still, there's "l'amour"
Somewhere out there in the night
Her Heart is also alight
And I know the guy she just might
Be burning for

A guy like you
She's never known, kid
A guy like you
A girl does not meet ev'ry day
You've got a look
That's all your own, kid
Could there be two?

VICTOR AND LAVERNE
Like you?

ALL THREE
No way!

HUGO
Those other guys
That she could dangle
All look the same
From ev'ry boring point of view
You're a surprise
From ev'ry angle
Mon Dieu above
She's gotta love
A guy like you

VICTOR
A guy like you
Gets extra credit
Because it's true
You've got a certain some thing more

HUGO
You're aces, kid

LAVERNE
You see that face
You don't forget it

VICTOR AND LAVERNE
Want something new?

HUGO
That's you

ALL THREE
For sure!

LAVERNE
We all have gaped
At some Adonis

VICTOR
But then we crave a meal
More nourishing to chew

HUGO
And since you've shaped
Like a croissant is

ALL THREE
No question of
She's gotta love
A guy like you!

LAVERNE
Call me a hopeless romatic
But Quasi, I feel it

VICTOR
She wants you so
Any moment she'll walk through that door

ALL THREE
For

HUGO

A guy so swell
With all you bring her
A fool could tell
It's why she fell
For you-know-who

You ring the bell

VICTOR AND LAVERNE
A guy like you
I tell you Quasi
There never was
Another, was he?
From king to serf
To the bourgeoisie
They're all a second-stringer
