Good News Page #3

- I'm glad you could stay, Peter.

- So am I.

I knew when I came down those stairs,

this was going to be my lucky night.

It's like fate.

It was accidental

We just met by chance

Yet I'm very certain

You will be my big romance

Football players bore me

All they've got is health

But, you, my sweet

Are joy complete

Because you've got such wealth

Of culture

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

What else matters

If you're lucky in love?

Good breaks are few

Few skies are blue

But bad luck scattered

When I first looked at you

I don't care

What the future will bring

If we're there together

I won't need a thing

I'll say I'm lucky in love

If you'll take me, that'll make me

Oh, so lucky in love

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Don't you know when you are

Lucky in love?

You're just my speed

Why must I plead?

Oh, come to baby

In her hour of need

I don't care if you're puny and weak

And you've only got

Baby fuzz on your cheek

I love you!

Lucky in love

If you trust me then we must be

- Oh, so lucky in love

- In love

Lucky in love

- You're lucky if you're lucky in love

- You're lucky

- Lucky in love

- You're lucky

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

What else matters

If you're lucky in love?

Good days are few

Few skies are blue

But bad luck scatters

Every time I'm with you

I don't mind if at poker, I'm green

If I stand ace high

With a beautiful queen

I'll say I'm lucky in love

If you'll take me, that'll make me

Oh, so lucky

So darn lucky

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Guess I never will be

Lucky in love

Some girls are gay

Know what to say

But when I talk

I scare the fellows away

If my dream man

Should ever arrive

I can bet he won't

Even know I'm alive

Lucky in love

Must be fun to be someone who's

Oh, so lucky in love

In love, lucky in love

You're lucky if you're lucky in love

You're lucky in love

You're lucky in love

So lucky, lucky, lucky

If you're lucky in love

- You're lucky

- Got your head in a whirl

- You're lucky

- If you got the right girl

You're oh, so lucky

Lucky in love

Lucky in love

Up to now

I've been so lucky in love

Never was spurned

Never got burned

The cat's pajamas

Where the girls were concerned

But now I'm acting

Just like a dope

It's the first time some baby said

"It's no soap. "

And meant it!

Lucky in love

If you take me, that'll make...

- So it was you!

Of all the uncouth,

contemptible tricks!

I just wanted a chance

to get together.

Get together? I never want

to see you again. You...

You're absolutely incorrigible!

- What's that?

- That's French.

Pal, that gal

Sure put you in your place

When she called you incorrigible

To your face

Oh, brother, you got a shove

And without that, we still doubt that

You'd be lucky in love

In love, lucky in love

You're lucky if you're lucky in love

You're lucky

So lucky

It's oh, so lovely

If you are

Lucky in love

- These are what you're looking for.

- That's fine, Miss Lane. Thanks.

Good night.

Why, Mr. Marlowe. What on earth

are you doing here?

Well, why? Can't anyone come in here?

I thought you'd made a mistake. It's

not the hangout for the football team.

What do you mean? I've often

been here doing research.

Not in the past three years.

Why do you say that?

I work here, Mr. Marlowe.

I'm the assistant librarian.

In that case, I'll never lie again.

But how come you look so familiar?

Where have I seen you before?

You've seen me 100 times

in the past three years.

You stood right next to me

at the punch bowl last night.

My name is Connie Lane.

Babe's roommate! For crying out loud,

then you're a student.

- Why do you want to work here?

- It helps pay my tuition.

It's called working your way

through college.

Oh, I'm sorry.

At your service.

Where's the French dictionary?

I want to look up a word.

I'm majoring in languages.

What's the word?

Ever heard of a French word,

"in-courage-gee-bull"?

- You mean incorrigible.

- What does it mean?

Same thing it means in English.

"Lmpossible, incorrigible,

past reforming. "

That's what I thought.

She spoke the word beautifully.

I heard it all the way in the kitchen.

I'll give her back that parlez-vous.

- Who's the best French teacher?

- Kennyon.

I'll sign up for a course.

Don't get carried away. Kennyon is

tough, and he hates football players.

I've never flunked a subject yet.

Come on, show me a few words.

- Don't be silly. It's closing time.

- Come on.

Well, all right.

- Wonderful!

- This is work?

It's more like play

In no time flat

Je parle franais

- Had enough?

- I'm just starting

All right, you asked for it

The door, la porte

La porte, the door

Of wood, du bois

Du bois, of wood

To open, ouvrir

Ouvrir, to open

To shut, fermer

Fermer, to shut

The pronouns that you need

- You're crazy!

- Won't you come join me in a dance?

I am the president of France!

- Gee, this is fun.

- Yes, I know.

I didn't know learning could be fun.

Look at these books

waiting to be read.

- Anybody can come in and read them.

- Yeah, no cover charge.

When I was a kid, I loved to read.

I wanted to find out about everything.

I thought I was the only

kid who felt that way.

You too?

I wanted to find out about

everybody in the world.

Don't bother with that now.

Come on.

There was a creek back home.

I used to take a canoe and...

...pretend that I was going to

the countries I'd read about.

- Bread and butter.

- Bread and butter.

I was Huck Finn on the Mississippi,

the Volga, the Nile, the Seine...

...all of them.

Sometimes at night, I'd sit there
