I'd just like to say uh good afternoon mister banerjee

And take this opportunity of welcoming you and your musicians

To the studio

I thank you very much I'm very glad to have the opportunity

Of coming here

Tell me um have you found that uh

There has been great enthusiasm

For george bernard shaw in India

Oh my goodness yes yes we have got a lot of people

In India and indeed in pakistan

Who are loving to hearing the words

Of george Bernard shaw

We are saing to ourselves over there " this

Man has got a great white beard

So therefore he must have great knowledge "

And so we are saying to ourselves " that is what we are

Wanting that is what we are wanting

We are wanting to hear words of

This man so that

So that we can learn them and sing them and play them "

Uh have you visited the shrine of GBS

In ayot st lawrence at all

Well indeed yes We have all been there

We went on a bus

Coach tour to ayr-ayrton st lawrence

And we are saying to

Ourselves " my goodness

Here we are where the great man was living "

And we went in the first place to look around

And we are saying " that

Is where he was sleeping and this is where he was eating

And this

Is another room and

" Uh all kinds of rooms in this house are very

Good for us to know of

Have you uh taken the story of " my fair lady"

And uh uh as it stands

Or have you changed it at all

What have you done with it

Well what what we have done with it you see uh I I am

Playing uh what is called over here Professor Higgins I am playing

Professor umbelahi

I'm walking through the market place one

Day uh at near maharatchme

Which is near bombay you understand

And I'm walking by there and I am saying to my friend

Who is with me

I say " Look there over there is a beautiful

Untouchable girl beautiful

" And he says " oh yes but we she is untouchable

We don't want to know her " ah chut and cha I am

Making her touchable that is what I am doing

You see and I am saying to her

" Come with me my dear and I will make you a touchable "

And she is saying to me " no I am untouchable that's

Good enough for me "

Do you have a good cast

Oh yes indeed I come from a very high caste

Oh yes yes oh yes

I can safely say that

Uh no no I wasn't referring to

What I mean is is there a good cast

In the the show

Well yes we have a very excellent cast

I'm sorry I misunderstood you

You see

We have all kinds of stars from India

We have two people from

Assam we have another woman

Her has come all the way from ceylon

What ah what ah what have you called the songs

I mean have you changed

The titles of the songs at all

Oh yes

Well naturally we we we have had to um um ah

Change one or two

Of the main songs um a-a-ah

We have featured

We have now called " get me to the taj mahal on time"

And um ah

" I've grown accustomed to your dhoti"

And I would like to sing for you

Now this beautiful song uh

What we are doing on the tour and I think

When you have heard it you will say " my goodness me

What a lovely song "

Or words to that effect

All I want is a room somewhere

Far a-way from the cold night air

With one enormous chair

Oh would it not be lovely

Lots of chocolate for me to eat

Lots of coal making lots of heat

Warm feet warm hands warm foot

Oh wouldn't it be lovely

Oh So lovely sitting abso-bloomin-lutely still

Watcher cockie

I would never budge till

Spring crept on the windowsill

Someone's head is resting on my knee

Warm and tender as she can be

Who'll taking good care of me

Oh would it not be lovely

Lovely lovely lovely

Aahhhh

Ooohhhhh

So loverly sittin' abso-bloomin-lutely still

I would never budge till

Spring crept on the windowsill

Someone's head resting on my knee

Warm and tender as she can be

Who'll taking good care of me

Oh would it not be lovely lovely

Lovely lovely lovely

Would it not be lovely

Would it not be lovely
