I Remember You / Dixie's Dream

[Announcer:] "The stars of our show, and America's "shiekest" couple,
 Eddie Sparks and Dixie Leonard!"
 [J:] I remember you.
 [B:] I'd like to say that you're in my dreams.
 [J:] You're the one who made my dreams come true
 [B:] You're usually dead,
 [J:] a few
 [B:] without a head,
 [J:] kisses ago.
 [B:] and lots of natives are picking their teeth with your bones.
 [J:] I remember, too,
 [B:] Oh, what a dream!
 [J:] a distant bell,
 [B:] It comes at night and taunts me,
 [J:] and stars that fell
 [B:] and, like your jokes, it haunts me until
 [J:] like rain out of the blue.
 [B:] I'm blue as your face as the last breath leaves you.
 [J:] When my life is through,
 [B:] I'll jump for joy.
 [J:] and the angels ask me to recall
 [B:] and when Winchell asks me to recall
 who's a chump and a heel.
 [J:] the thrill of it all,
 [B:] Who's the biggest schlemeil?
 [Both:] Then I will tell them I remember . . .
 [J:] "So, uh, it's my birthday comin' up."
 [B:] "Yeah, I know, Eddie."
 [J:] "But, what do you give a guy that's got everything?"
 [B:] "Uh, penicillin?"
 [J:] "Hmmm, hey Dix? You ever been married?"
 [B:] "Oh, yeah, Eddie, twice!"
 [J:] "Children?"
 [B:] "No, silly! Grown men!
 Tell me, Eddie, what's the most romantic thing a woman ever said to you?"
 [J:] "Are you sure you're not a cop?"
 Then I will tell them I remember . . . you.
 [B:] You
 [J:] and you.
