5.I'll Never Be Jealous Again

Mabel:Hinesy, Hinesy
Hines:I've learned my lesson Mabel, I'll never be jealous again.
Mabel:You stick to that now
Hines:Absolutely

Mabel: Now that's easier said than done.
Hines: I can do it
Mabel: I knew it
but lets take an example, just for fun
Picture this, you're sitting here waiting for her to come back
from a date

Hines: there I am, sitting and waiting for her to come back from
a date
Mabel: Here she comes, her blouse is unbutton her stockings are
not very straight
Hines: Here she comes, her blouse is unbuttoned her stockings
are not very straight
Mabel: Later on, she gets a bouque with a card in it saying
'Baby, you were great'
'Well, Hinesy, what would you do then?'

Hines: I would trust her, I would trust her, by George, I swear
I would trust her
No I'll never be jealous again

Mabel: Nice work, Hinesy
Hines: I knew I could do it Mablel
Mabel: Now lets take another example
Picture this, you've got nothing to do so you drop in to chat
for awhile
Hines: There I am, I've got nothing to do so I drop in to chat
for awhile
Mabel: Something's up, the windows are open and Gladys is
forcing a smile
Hines: Something's up, the window is open and Gladys is forcing
a smile
Mabel: There you see, a shirt and a tie and pair of pants in a
nice neat little pile
'Well, Hinesy'
Hines: I...I woud trust her, I would trust her, by George I
swear I would trust her
Oh I'll never be jealous, I'll never never never never...be
jealous again
Mabel: That's it Hinesy you're practically cured!
Hines: There'll be no more nightmares to sleep through
No more key holes to peep through
Mabel: No more bushes to creep through
Hines: That's my plan
Mabel: Well now that you're a new man
Picture this, you go to your sweeties apartment you borrow the
key
Hines: There I am, I go to my sweeties apartment, I borrow the
key
Mabel: There she is, she's giving a sailor a very affectionate
squeeze
Hines: There she is, she's giving a sailor a very affectionate
squeeze
Mabel: Then, to boot, she tells you she was in the arms of a
cousin who was back from over seas
Hines: A COUSIN BACK FROM OVER SEAS? DO YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE
THAT?!I WAS NOT BORN YESTERDAY!...
Mabel: Hinesy!

Hines: I would trust her, I would trust her, by George I swear,
I would trust her
No I'll never be jealous...I'll never never never never
never....never be jealous again
Mabel: I'm so proud of you!
