It’s just like looking for a needle in a haystack
Searching for a moonbeam in the blue
Still I’ve gotta find you
Betty Grable: You’re my type of a shy type of a beau, dear …
Edward Everett Horton: Beg pardon?
Betty Grable: So let’s do things …
Edward Everett Horton: Oh, really …
Betty Grable: I’ll teach you a few things …
Edward Everett Horton: Are you talking to me?
If you listen I’ll sing you a sweet little song
Of a flower that’s now drooped and dead,
Yet dearer to me, yes than all of its mates,
Though each holds aloft its proud head.

I was working in the lab late one night
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight
When my monster, from its slab, began to rise
And suddenly to my surprise
