Guys and Dolls, Act II Scene 1: No. 22, Adelaide's Second Lament

"Adelaide (sniffles and then sings)

In other words, just from sitting alone

At a table reserved for two,

A person can develop the flu.

You can bundle her up in her woollies,

And I mean the warmest brand,

You can wrap her in sweaters and coats

’Til it’s more than her frame can stand;

If she still gets the feeling she’s naked

From looking at her left hand,

A person can develop the flu. Huh! The flu!

A hundred and three point two?

So much virus inside

That her microscope slide

Looks like a day at the zoo!

Just from wanting her mem’ries in writing

And a story her folks can be told,

A person can develop a cold."
