No. 16 - Song - Adolfo and Girls - "Cupid's Telephone."
| Girls: | If you desire to see your little girlie, Tho' I fear it's rather early, Why not pay her a call? |
| Adolfo: | I might not find her at all. |
| Girls: | But if you were to send a little greeting, Surely she would soon arrange a meeting. She could say when she will be alone, when she will be alone! |
| Adolfo: | I think I'll telephone My little maidy, Telephone this pretty young lady. If I may not see her, I'll rejoice To hear her sweet and tender little voice. |
| Girls: | Yes, telephone and tell her only If she is feeling lonely You'll be there. |
| Adolfo: | I must look her number up somewhere! Are you there, Exchange? |
| Gladys: | What number, please? |
| Adolfo: | Ring up "Cupid, double-one-two!" |
| Gladys: | Double-one-two! You're through! |
| Adolfo: | Hello, dearie, is that you? |
| 1st. Girl: | How are you, little man? Call round if you can! |
| Adolfo: | I have bought for you some flow'rs and a fan! |
| 2nd. Girl: | Do you love me truly? |
| Adolfo: | Of course I do! |
| 3rd. Girl: | Do you love me truly? |
| Adolfo: | Of course I do! You know I love no other girl but you. |
| Girls: | That's all I want to know. Ring off! |
| Girls: | Perhaps you'd like a longer conversation If you love the declaration Cupid quickly inspired. |
| Adolfo: | I may be making him tired! |
| Girls: | Now you're cut off I fancy it will grieve her, P'r'haps she lingers yet at the receiver, Whisp'ring words in quite a loving tone, in quite a loving tone. |
| Adolfo: | Once more I'll telephone And tell her sweetly I belong unto her completely If the wires should cross, they often do, Then I'll be cross until they put me through. |
| Girls: | Yes, telephone and never tarry If you desire to marry This fair miss. |
| Adolfo: | Shall I send a telephonic kiss? Are you there, Exchange? |
| Gladys: | What number, please? |
| Adolfo: | Ring up "Cupid, double-one-two!" |
| Gladys: | Double-one-two! You're through! |
| Adolfo: | Hello, dearie, is that you? |
| 1st. Girl: | I am your little girl, My heart's in a whirl! |
| Adolfo: | I've a ring for you with a diamond and pearl! |
| 2nd. Girl: | Do you love me truly? |
| Adolfo: | Of course I do! |
| 3rd. Girl: | Do you love me truly? |
| Adolfo: | Of course I do! You know I love no other girl but you. |
| Girls: | That's all I want to know. Ring off! |
