István Farkas (1887-1944)
The Aged Sailor and the Old Woman (1939)
This lady, though unsightly, is a prospect
I could marry her and go off to sea
It appears she’s insanely wealthy
Without doubt, there’d be millions for me
The Captain is after my riches
But my lawyers can take care of that
He would look distinguished at my soiree
In his handsome white beard and his hat
István Farkas
Man and Woman in the Window (1939)
She looks stunningly pretty in her outfit
I am so inferior to her
We will have to end it this evening
A tragedy of life, as it were
My lipstick is smeared
My hair is a mess
I so want to please him
I’ll buy a new dress
István Farkas
Separated (1941)
I do feel slight guilt about leaving
How will she ever make do?
I am all that she has in this world
Too bad that she hasn’t a clue
And off he goes, la de da
I pray he’ll get on with his life
This is my best moment ever
So unpleasant, being his wife
