Slightly Out of Tune (Desafino)

Brian: When I try to sing, you say I'm off-key.

Why can't you see how much this hurts me.

With your perfect beauty and your perfect pitch.

You're a perfect angel.

When I come around, must you always put me down.

If you say my singing is off-key, my love.

You will hurt my feelings, don't you see, my love.

I wish I had an ear like yours, a voice that would behave.

All I have is feeling and a voice God gave.

You insist my music goes against the rules.

Yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools.

I wrote this little song for you, but you don't care.

It's a crooked song, ah, but all my heart is there.

The thing that you would see if you would do your part.

Is even if I'm out of tune, I have a gentle heart.

I took your picture with my trusty Rolleiflex.

And now all I have developed is a complex.

Possibly in vain, I hope you weaken, oh my love.

And forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of.

A life of love and music with someone who'll understand.

That even though I may be out of tune,

When I attempt to say how much I love you.

All that matters is the message that I bring

Which is my dear one I love you.

{Applause}

Lois: Oh, that was lovely, Brian.

Brian: Oh, great. Thanks.

Was it... uh... was it lovely enough for you to-

Lois: No, I will not make out with you.

Brian: Got it. Won't ask again.

Herbert: Well, hey there, muscley-arm.

Chris: Oh, hi, Mr. Herbert

Lois: Oh, Herbert... How nice to see you.

Herbert: I ain't talkin' to you, hussy.

Hey, Chris. Brought you some candy corns.

Chris: Wow, thanks.

Herbert: You know, you walk by my house everyday only way to catch the scubas. It just makes me wanna sing. So I'm gonna sing you a little song, Chris.

Chris: Cool!
