At this time I should like very much to thank my wonderful conductor.
And what he does is this…It’s sort of… It reminds me of an old
Mae West picture…uh… I don’t know how I made this association,
but…you see, he makes this orchestra sound as if there were 70 pieces.
And it reminds me the scene where Mae was teaching in a classroom
and she said: “One an’ one is two…two
an’ two is four… four an’ four makes ten, if you have worked right!”
And I would also like to say that I’m thrilled and delighted…I can’t
believe there’s 128,000 people out there… “FEENTASTIC!” Ah! Ah!
Thank you… But I would like to thank you, you lovely bunch of…

People, people who need people,
Are the luckiest people in the world.
We’re children, needing other children,
And yet letting a grown-up pride,
Hide all the need inside,
Acting more like children than children.
Lovers are very special people,
They’re the luckiest people in the world;
With one person, one very special person;
A feeling deep in your soul
Says you are half now you’re whole,
No more hunger and thirst,
But first be a person who needs people,
People who need people…
Are the luckiest people in the world…
With one person, one very special person;
No more hunger and thirst,
First be a person who needs people,
People who need people…
Are the luckiest people in the world…
