Marian The Librarian (from "The Music Man")

Marian The Librarian - Robert Preston

Marian

Madam Librarian

What can I do my dear to catch your ear

I love you madly madly Madam Librarian Marian

Heaven help us if the library caught on fire

And the Volunteer Hose Brigademen

Had to whisper the news to Marian Madam Librarian

What can I do my dear to make it clear

I need you badly badly Madam Librarian Marian

If I stumbled and I busted my what-you-may-call-it

I could lie on your floor on notis

'Till my body had turned to carrion Madam Librarian

Now in the moonlight a man could sing it

In the moonlight

And a fellow would know that his darling

Had heard ev'ry word of his song

With the moonlight helping along

But when I try in here to tell you dear

I love you madly madly Madam Librarian Marian

It's a long lost cause I can never win

For the civilized world accepts as unforgivable sin

Any talking out loud with any librarian

Such as Marian Madam Librarian
