Scandal
Hector Mann plays a businessman who checks in an old hotel When he picks up the phone to call his girl at home, he gets the opera singer down the hall
It's not a scandal, just a misunderstanding You're not who I thought you were at all
Hector Mann goes to check his appearance, he thinks there's something funny with the mirror But really it's a jewel thief wearing the same suit and staring back from outside a window And two doors down he can hear the opera singer cry out 'Someone call the manager!
There's been a break-in, my necklace has been stolen! I need it for tonight's performance! He was a man in a white suit and moustache You catch him in the act then he's a dead man.'
Now it's a scandal, just a misunderstanding I'm afraid that you've got it all wrong
And pretty soon it's hard to say just what is what, who is who Everybody running round from room to room, up and down Is this just a case of the right time in the wrong place I'm a man with good intentions, how did you get the wrong impression?
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Usually he's keen to keep his suit clean, now he's in a hurry to get it dirty, From the kitchen to the chimney, the fireplace to the furnace Until he's no longer who he once was
It's not a scandal, just a misunderstanding This kind of thing just happens to me
Word spreads from the deskclerk to the bellhop to the valet To the policeman down the alleyway Hector Mann is standing in a black suit in the open He's pointing saying I think that he went that a-way.
Hector Mann plays a businessman who checks out of an old hotel He's done with the double takes, pratfalls and acrobatics You can tell he's done with them for good
It's not a scandal, just a misunderstanding It's not a scandal, just a misunderstanding And in the last frame it closes on twist of his moustache And you know he's had enough.
