Song lyrics to You’ll Never Know Just What Tears Are, written by Ted Healy and His Stooges (better known as the Three Stooges).
You’ll Never Know What Tears Are was originally performed for their vaudeville stage act. However, it’s been filmed by the Stooges multiple times as well.
The world of cinema always had something to do with love, just like any other form of art out there. Why is that? Love seems to penetrate everything that we do in this life, from the love that our parents give us during our childhood, love that we give to our first crush in school, love that we give to our partners, and the love that we give to our own children. Love is the most powerful feeling in the world, and thus, we want to share the love that we feel for someone in this world with the rest of the people around us, with all the beauties and horrors of this feeling. I am a big fan of the British cinema, so I am a little bit biased, but that doesn’t mean that it is not worth praising it for all the masterpieces that were created under its proud banner.

Herbie Brown (Lou Costello): That sergeant always makes me boil, I’d like to fry that guy in oil, No matter what you do he’s always squawkin’ But you just wait and don’t forget I’ll get to be a captain yet And that’s the day that I’ll do all the talkin’.
