Where Did The Gentleman Go?

(album: Love On The Rocks - 1963)

I'm not in the mood for laughter
And the gentleman who said
That after the rain there's a rainbow
Where did the gentleman go?
I'd like to know him
I'd like to show him the exception to the rule

I'm not in the mood for gay times
And the gentleman who wrote those gay rhymes
Out of love making hearts glow
Where did the gentleman go?

Wrong is his theory
For here is a weary exception to the rule
I'm such a fool
For I know where I go
There's not even one small chance at love
I know and yet I go, go around
Boldly putting my chin out

I'm not in the mood for sunshine
And unconsciously
I caught the one line
The chance of a good day
For me it's just not that way
Where is the rainbow
Why won't my heart glow
Where did the gentleman go?
