Small World
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
[Rose:] Funny, you're a stranger who's come here,
come from another town.
Funny, I'm a stranger myself here.
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, you're a man who goes traveling
rather than settling down.
Funny, 'cause I'd love to go traveling.
Small world, isn't it?
We have so much in common,
it's a phenomenon.
We could pool our resources
by joining forces from now on.
Lucky, you're a man who likes children.
That's an important sign.
Lucky, I'm a woman with children.
Small world, isn't it?
Funny, isn't it small and funny and fine?
[Herbie:] We have so much in common,
it's a phenomenon.
We could pool our resources
by joining forces from now on.
[R:] Lucky, you're a man who likes children.
[H:] That's an important sign.
[R:] Lucky,
[H:] You're a
[R & H:] woman with children.
Small world, isn't it?
[R:] Funny, isn't it
[H:] isn't it
[R & H:] small and funny and fine?
