Small World - Lyrics by Bette Midler


Lyrics
"
Small World"(feat. Peter Reigert)
[
Rose:] Funny, you're a stranger who's come here,
come from another town.

Funny, I'm a stranger myself here.

Small world, isn't it?


Funny, you're a man who goes traveling
rather than settling down.

Funny, 'cause I'd love to go traveling.

Small world, isn't it?


We have so much in common,
it's a phenomenon.

We could pool our resources
by joining forces from now on.


Lucky, you're a man who likes children.

That's an important sign.

Lucky, I'm a woman with children.

Small world, isn't it?

Funny, isn't it small and funny and fine?

[
Herbie:] We have so much in common,
it's a phenomenon.

We could pool our resources
by joining forces from now on.

[R:] Lucky, you're a man who likes children.
[H:] That's an important sign.
[R:] Lucky,
[H:] You're a
[R & H:] woman with children.

Small world, isn't it?
[R:] Funny, isn't it
[H:] isn't it
[R & H:] small and funny and fine?
