from the musical The Honeymoon Express
Written and Composed by Billy Merson
1911
'Doing what, Carmody?'
'Blighting my life.'
'List to me while I tell you of the Spaniard who blighted my life,' sang Percy Pilbeam, letting it go like a lark in the springtime. He had never felt happier or in more congenial society.
