The Tennis Song lyrics
STONE:
You seem at home on the court
ALAURA:
Lets say that I've played around
STONE:
You don't look like the sort
ALAURA:
My hidden talents abound
A competitor hasn't been found to defeat me
STONE:
I beat your a real good sport
ALAURA:
Shall we say the ball is in your court
STONE:
I bet you like to play rough
ALAURA:
I like to work up a sweat
STONE:
And you just can't get enough
ALAURA:
I'm good for more than one set
But I promise I'll show no regret if you beat me
STONE:
My back hand is clearly my forte
ALAURA/STONE:
Shall we say the ball is in your court
ALAURA:
No one ever plays with me
STONE:
I thought your next of kin did
ALAURA:
My husband never plays with me
He's to easily winded
STONE:
You leave me breathless too
ALAURA:
Wait til our match is through
STONE:
I may lack form and finesse
But I'll warm up in a jiff
ALAURA:
It's not exciting unless the competition is stiff
STONE:
I think I understand your racket
I'm not in your leauge
ALAURA:
But you can hack it!
STONE:
This game commences with love
ALAURA:
Well I think love is a bore
STONE:
Lets give the tempo a shove
ALAURA:
And raise the stakes a bit more
ALAURA/STONE:
One thing I'm postive of it's time for someone to score
STONE:
Tell me how you like to play
ALAURA:
On grass or clay and everyday
STONE:
They're both ok
ALAURA:
But time is running short
Darling lets don't dilly dally
STONE:
Ready for a rousing rally
ALAURA/STONE:
Shall we say the ball is in your court
(dialouge)
ALAURA:
Shall we say the ball is in your court
