Did you ever go to Whitstable

and see the oyster
parlors there?

My father kept one.

I was born in it.

That's my sister Alice.

She was a good girl, Alice,

and my best friend
as well as my big sister.

That's my father.

Best Whitstable natives
you'll ever taste.

Right you are, sir.
Coming.

But this isn't
about him or Alice

or my brother Davy
or my mother.

It's about me, Nan Astley,

and I was nothing then.

I was barely 18.

My life had hardly started.

But open an oyster, and it's
like a secret world in there,

and that's how it was with me.

I didn't see how
my life could have

any surprises waiting in it.

I suppose I was content with
my oyster girl's existence.

All right then, Nan.

Hello, Freddy.

Go for a little walk, then?

Yes, all right, then.

I don't mind.

That was our little routine.

I'd meet him when they
brought the boat in,

and we'd go for a little walk...

and a little spooning.

We weren't what
you'd call "fast."

It was expected, really, but...

I never knew how
I was supposed to feel.

Tony Reeves was sweet on Alice.

He was undermanager

at the Canterbury
Palace of Varieties.

Mother thought him a bit rapid,

but you couldn't not like him.

Ding-dong, ding-dong!

I heard that from
Gully Sutherland himself.

Hey, you mustn't miss
his show next week.

It's a stunner!

I'll get you in the circle
for gallery price.

That's very kind
of you, Mr. Reeves.

Tony! Tony!

We know each other
well enough by now.

Well, we should love to come.

Is it all right if Nan's
Freddy comes along, too?

Of course.
The more the merrier.

He's not "my" Freddy, Mother.

He isn't yet,
but he'd like to be.

Is that about the shape of it?

And now, ladies and
gentlemen, a very special treat.

For those of you
who are connoisseurs

of elegance and top class...

Miss Kitty Butler!

What do you think?
Pretty smart?

Not half bad, I should say.

I'm following in
Father's footsteps,

Following me dear, old dad.

He's just in front
with a fine, big gal,

So I thought
I'd have one as well.

Oh, Rosie.

Dear Rosie.

There's a rose in my heart...

for you.

Catch.

Good-bye!
Good-bye! Come again!

Miss Kitty Butler!

And now, ladies and
gentlemen, the one and only

Mr. Gully "He'll tickle
your fancy" Sutherland!

Hey, ladies and gentlemen!

What's up?
Just a bit...

Do you want me to come?

No.

Are you all right, Nan?

Nan?

I've seen that
face somewhere before.

Hello?

You what?

She did!

I'm all right now, really.

Why don't you go back then?

Come on, now.
Keep me company.

Oh, it must be wonderful
to work here.

Aye, some of the time it is.

Enjoying the show?

Oh, yes!

Anything in particular?

Kitty Butler.

I've never, ever seen
a girl like her.

She's got it off, hasn't she?

Like a proper boy.

All the walk, all the business.

But then she's not.

You've got to remember
that, Nancy.

Well, of course I know that.

Well, that's all right, then.

Oh, I wish I could come
and see her every night.

Well, there's no reason
why you shouldn't.

I can put you up in one

of the boxes, if you like.

They're hardly ever
taken on a weeknight.

Really?

Alice.

Alice.

How do you feel when
you're with Tony?

What a question.

Same as you when you're
with Freddy, I suppose.

I don't feel anything much

when I'm with Freddy.

Well, perhaps you should
be showing him what to do.

If you don't like him,
chuck him then.

Plenty more fish in the sea.

It's not I don't like him.

Yeah, I know.

He's just not "the one."

You'll find someone
you really like, Nan.

Promise?

You wait.

You'll meet someone who'll
have your head spinning

and your legs turning
to jelly and...

And what?

You'll find out.

Now shut your eyes
and go to sleep.

Oh, Rosie.

Dear Rosie.

There's a rose in my heart...

for you.

But now I come to look around,

there's a lot of pretty
girls down here as well.

Put out the lights, Lymsman.

Let's have a look at you.

Well, we're spoiled for
choice this evening, gents.

Catch.

Good-bye!
Come again!

Here she comes then.

How was she tonight, Nancy?

Just as good,
if not better.

She's not a real boy, you know.

I know she's not.

You ask me, I think
there might be

some young chap in
the orchestra pit

she's got her eye on.

I just hope young Freddy

don't catch on!

I wish you'd all
mind your own business!

When I see her,
it's like...

Oh, I don't know
what it's like.

When she walks on
stage, she makes me

want to smile and weep at once.

She makes me sore, here.

I never, ever saw a girl
like her before.

I never knew that there
were girls like her.

I don't know what it is.

I don't know what's the
matter with me, Alice.

Do you think I'm cracked?

I don't think you should get
too keen on that girl, Nan.

Why ever not?

They're... not like us,
people like that.

They don't lead natural
lives, you know.

I think you should
forget about her, Nan.

You don't understand, Alice.

I don't want to talk
about it anymore.

It wasn't any use,

telling me to forget
about Kitty Butler.

As if I could.

And... I didn't see
why I should.

Nancy, you can
go as far as you like.

Don't worry.
I'll tell you if it hurts.

No! I don't want to.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

I just don't want that, Freddy.

I'm serious, you know, Nan.

We can be engaged.

Well, then it would be
all right, wouldn't it?

Can't we just go on as we are?

You don't really
care for me at all.

I do, though.

No, you don't.

You just like to keep me
there, tagging along like.

If you really cared for me,
you'd let me do it.

Well, then... I don't
care for you.

Oh, Nan!

Oh, don't take it
like that, Nan!

I didn't really mean it!

But I did.

I meant it!

And if what Freddy wanted
was only human nature,

so was what I wanted!

But what was it I wanted?

I didn't know,

but I knew it had something
to do with Kitty Butler.

We said good-bye
with a tear and a sigh

And whispered all the pretty
things that sweethearts say.

You promised
you'd never forget me.

I promised I'd always be true.

Oh, Rosie.

Dear Rosie.

There's a rose in my heart...

for you.

Miss Kitty Butler,
ladies and gentlemen!

Good-bye! Come again!

And now,
ladies and gentlemen,

the one you've all
been waiting to see...

Hey,
ladies and gentlemen!

...as a friend would,

and knocks on door.

Sorry, um...

No, no, no, no.

Nothing to be sorry about.

You're just
the person I wanted.

I've got a message for you.

Someone wants to see you.

Who?

Shh, shh, shh.

Come in!

Here she is,
Miss Nancy Astley.

Miss Butler, I'll
take up no more

of your valuable time.

May I say again, a
delightful evening,

a rare treat.

Miss Astley,

a pleasure to make
your acquaintance.

Walter Bliss at your service.

Good night, ladies.

Mr. Reeves.

I'm very pleased to
meet you, Miss Astley.

Do have a chair.

So... you're "my"
mystery admirer.

I thought it was Gully

you came to see very night.

Then somebody told me
you always went out

after I had finished.

Is it really me you stay for?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

Now I'm here, I can't
think of what to say.

Well, it was me
who sent for you,

so you needn't say anything

if you don't want to.

But I do wish you'd
tell me what it is

you like so much.

I'm very vain, you see.

I do love to hear nice
things about myself.

I like everything.

Your costumes and your songs

and the way you sing them.

And the way you move

and the way you smile
and your voice.

You seem so very gay and bold.

It makes me happy
just to hear you.

And I think your hair
is beautiful.

Truly?

Gully says it's like
guinea pigs' fur.

Well, he's wrong.

Well, I'll tell him
you said so.

Do you mind if I
clean my makeup off

while we talk?

So... what about you?

I know that you're
a friend of Tony's.

Is he your sweetheart?

No.

No, he's courting
my sister Alice.

Is he? Hmm.

So, what about you?

Have you got a sweetheart?

No.

Nor have I.

So, where do you come from

and where do you work at?

Whitstable.

I work in an oyster house.

An oyster house?
Like the song.

As I was going down
Bishop's Gate Street,

An oyster girl
I happened to meet.

Into her basket,
I happened to peep

To see if she had any oysters.

I do hope I haven't
offended you,

Miss Astley.
No! No.

There's nothing wrong
with oyster girls.

I think they're rather nice,

if you're an example of them.

Miss Butler...

Oh, call me Kitty, do.

And what can I call you?

Nan.

Thank you.
You're very kind.

I was going
to ask... Kitty...

why did you think of it
in the first place?

Dressing like a boy

and cutting your hair
short and everything?

Oh, wouldn't you if
you had the chance?

Men have all the fun.

Besides, there's too many girls

in this business.

Most of them would
do anything to

please the manager,
and you won't find

me playing those games, Nan.

And I love my costumes

and being able to stride about

and give them a bit of cheek.

Don't get me wrong...

I do like being a girl
as well, you know.

Well... what do you
think?

Pretty smart or
a bit of a letdown?

I should say so.

No.

Oh, no.

You're a dear girl!

But I can't stop and talk

any longer this evening, Nan.

Gully's taking us
all out for supper,

and what Gully
wants, Gully gets.

But you'll come and see
me again, won't you?

You could come before the show

and help me dress,
if you'd like.

Really?

Of course really.

Then I shall.

Starting next Monday.

And now we shall have
to say good night.

Miss Astley.

You smell like...
I know.

Like a herring.

Not a bit like a herring.

Like a mermaid.

I told myself to be sensible.

Perhaps she hadn't meant it,
or she might think better of it.

Like a mermaid.

Like a mermaid.

And so I became
Kitty Butler's dresser,

and her best pal, too.

And we were together
all that season.

Good-bye! Come again!

Miss Kitty Butler!

Careful, Kitty.

Don't turn that poor
girl's head.

What would she think

if she knew the part she played
in my fierce dreamings?

You hold it like this,
flat shell on top.

Then, you put the point of
the knife in the hinge, see?

Hold it steady.
Mustn't waste any of the liquor.

That's the best bit, some say.

That's the flesh.

You cut that loose.

And now you may eat it.

Well done, Miss Butler.

Thank you.
Thank you, Nan.

And this is your room.

Very cozy.

Oh, it feels funny,
you being here.

Come. Sit by me.

I'm sure your mother
would disapprove.

I am just about dying
for a smoke.

You're lucky to have
a proper family.

Such a nice one, too.

I've never had a proper family.

How do you mean?

Oh, you don't want to know.

Let's just talk about
happy things.

Now, I think, if I had
a family like yours,

I'd never want to leave home.

Nan... I have something
to tell you.

It's a piece of good news,

and you must promise
to be happy for me.

Do you remember the man
who was with me

the first night
you came 'round?

Mr. Bliss?

Well... he's offered me
a contract in London

working in the halls there!

He says I'm too good
for the provinces.

He says London needs to see me,

and I need to be seen there.

He thinks I could be one
of the really big names, Nan.

I've got to take it.

Oh, yes.
I say that you have.

I am happy for you, Kitty.

You don't look it.

Well... I'm selfish.

I'd be unhappy to see you go.

And I'll be unhappy
to leave you behind.

Truly?

Would you come with me, Nan?

Come with you?

If your mother and father
will let you, of course.

I mean, you... you'll
have a proper wage,

not much, but enough
if we share a room.

Yes!

Do you really think you might?

And do you think
they'll let you?

I suppose you could
always come back home

if you didn't like it.

Didn't like it?

I'd do anything to go with you!

I'd go even if they
said I wasn't to!

They could lock me in my
room, and I'd climb out

the window and walk
all the way to London

to be with you!

I love you more than
anyone or anything!

I do!

Remember when you gave me this?

When you picked me out
of all the others?

You did, didn't you?

You chose me.

Yes.

Yes, I did.

And I didn't know
then I was choosing

the very best friend
I've ever had.

They didn't try to lock me in.

They could see my heart was set
on going to London with Kitty,

and they couldn't bear
to see me grieve.

There.

Don't spend it all
in the same shop.

You will write us,
won't you, Nan?

Of course I will.

Well, visit when you can.

Good-bye, Mother.

Nancy, what am I going
to do without you?

Take care now.

I shall.

Miss Butler!

What a pleasure!

Welcome to the gay metropolis.

And Miss Astley,
late of Whitstable.

Off goes his bonnet
to an oyster girl.

You're very welcome, my dear,

more so than I can say.

Go on, Nan.

And Miss Butler!

Follow me, porter!

Come along!
Keep up, man!

Make way!

Mr. Bliss
kindly took us to our new home,

Mrs. Dendy's Theatrical
Lodging House...

Miss Butler, allow me.

In Brixton.

There we are.

Well, we'll be safe
here, ladies.

Oh, I've always
loved theatricals,

and my mother before me.

...himself once
fell down these stairs.

Here is Signor Corelli.

You'll get
no trouble from him.

He loves those doves.

Ready to go
for you ladies.

Oh, they're very nice gents.

No trouble at all.

3 more up here, Signor Corelli!

One more to go.
Come on up now.

This will be yours.

Got a little entrance hall

as well as the bedroom.

Won't mind doubling up, I hope.

Not at all.

We're a bit close
to the railway.

You'll get used to
that after a while.

Are you asleep?

No.

Are you homesick, Nan?

Do you miss Alice?

Not really.

How your heart beats.

Do you like this, Nan?

Mmm.

If you knew how I'd
longed for a sister.

You'll be my sister
now, won't you?

I didn't want
to be her sister.

I do love you, Nan.

I wanted to be her sweetheart.

Night-night.

Ladies and gentlemen.

I give for your pleasure this
evening, Miss Kitty Butler.

Hello.

I've just come down
from Brighton.

There's a lot of pretty girls
down there, you know.

But now I come to look around,

There's a lot of pretty girls
down here...

Following in
your father's footsteps

Is a matter for each boy.

And following in
your father's footsteps

Is a thing I much enjoy.

My mother caught me
out one evening

Up the West End, on a spree.

She said,
"Where are you going?"

And I answered, "Don't ask me"

I'm following in
my father's footsteps.

Following my dear old dad.

Who's just in front
with a fine, big gal,

So I thought I'd
have one as well.

They don't like me, Nan.

They don't like me.

My dear, your first night
in the capital.

They were warming to you.

Give the word
a chance to spread.

They'll be eating
out of your hand

by the end of the week.

Do you really think so?

I'd stake my life on it, Kitty.

I promise you, I swear to you,

there is no match
to your act in town.

I promise you.

You promised you'd
never forget me.

I promised I'd always be true.

Oh, Rosie.

Dear Rosie.

There's a rose
in my heart... for you.

But he was right.

It didn't happen
by the end of the week,

but after a few months,

they couldn't get enough of her.

A triumph!

Oh, a triumph!

Now we've got them.

Now, Kitty,
get changed quickly.

The manager of the Alhambra
wants to meet you.

The Alhambra?
Yes.

You won't mind, will you, Nan?

It'll all be business talk.

Your chance for an early night.

I did mind,
but what could I do?

I was proud of her success,

but terrified it would
take her away from me.

I wanted to keep her close,
as close as my own skin.

I've just been down
to the seaside.

There's a lot of pretty girls
down there, you know.

Come to think of it,

There's a lot of pretty girls
down here, too.

I'm following in
Father's footsteps.

Following me dear old dad.

He's just in front
with a fine, big girl,

So I thought I'd
have one as well.

I got talking to
an oyster girl.

She could suck an oyster
rather well.

Oh, Kitty.

I love you.

Love you.

Love you.

Oh, it's you.

I'm sorry.
I don't know

what came over me.

Well, don't be sorry, Nan.

You're the very thing.

You look more like a boy
than I do.

Give us a turn.
Go on.

No.
I'm shy.

I could quite fall
for a boy like you.

Come here and give me a kiss.

What a handsome fellow.

I can't resist him.

Just wait till Walter sees you.

I don't want him to.

Well, I think it could be

just the thing
he's looking for.

They're talking about
developing my repertoire, Nan,

and, well, to go on with a pal

might be just the very thing.

Help me, Nan.
We'll show him

first thing tomorrow.

But all I could think was that

she had kissed me on the lips,

and yet I was no nearer
to declaring myself.

Was it possible that
she felt as I did?

I couldn't risk it.

Ready?

Uh-uh.

My God, that's it.

Why didn't I see it before?

Oh, this could be sensational.

Didn't I tell you?

Doesn't she look quite
the bobby-dazzler?

It's as if she was born to it.
Let's try a little song.

No, no.
I couldn't.

Yes, you could.

You know all the words
to all the songs.

Come on, Walter.
"Father's Footsteps."

To follow in your
father's footsteps

Is a matter for each boy.

Good.

And following in
Father's footsteps

Is a thing I much enjoy.

My mother caught me
out one evening

Up the West End, on a spree.

She said...

"Where are
you going?"

But I answered,
"Don't ask me."

We're following
in Father's footsteps.

Following me dear old dad.

He's just in front
with a fine, big gal,

So I thought I'd
have one as well.

We don't know
where we're going.

But when he gets there,
I'll be glad.

We're following in
Father's footsteps.

Yes, we're following
me dear old dad.

Bill from Bowbells
and his shy brother Bob.

How about that?

We'll get some
songs to suit you,

Suits made to measure...

And we should do something
about that hair.

There we are, Miss.

Or perhaps I should
say, "Sir."

Remarkable.

Now I'm like you.

Ladies and gents,

Your very own favorite
with a special treat,

For the first time
in this or any other hall,

It's 2 for the price of 1,

It's Kitty Butler and Nan King.

I'm rather shy.

I'm rather shy.
I'm rather shy.

I'm rather shy.
I'm rather shy.

All right.

Come on, Bob.
They won't eat you.

Oh, I don't know, Bill.
I'm rather shy.

Oh, I don't know what
I'm going to do with him.

He's the best partner
anybody could wish for,

But he's a little bit
backward in coming forward,

if you know what I mean.

Listen, and I'll tell you.

Come on, Bob.

Last Sunday was a holiday.

We scrubbed up nice and clean.

And took a little stroll about

Around the village green.

We saw a couple of pretty girls

As they were passing by.

I say the...
was spiffing.

And I'm sure one
winked her eye.

Oh, I don't know, Bill.

You better leave me out.

But it's very easy, Bob.

You never know until you try.

Oh, I don't know, Bill.

I'm rather shy.

Come on, Bob.
You're not funking it.

Well, I don't know
what to do, Bill.

...Leave the stage!

Come here and I'll show you.

Sorry.

You come up very softly

And you take her by the hand.

Like this?

That's right.

Look tenderly into her eyes.

And she will understand.

Like this.

Then lean a little closer

And steal a little kiss.

Oh, I can't.
I'm too shy.

No...

Oh, just try it.

What? Like this?

I think he's been
taking private lessons.

What do you think?

Should we ask him?
Now, Bob.

Mm-hmm?
Own up.

Where did you learn
to kiss like that?

I couldn't tell you, Bill.

I'm rather shy.

- He's rather shy.
- I'm rather shy.

He's rather shy.
I'm rather shy.

He's taking free lessons

In giving girls the eye.

Where did you go last Friday

When you... sky?

I'm going to tell you, Bill.

2, 3.

Come on!

I'm rather shy!

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you.
Thank you very much.

Well done, Kitty.

It's all for you, Nan.

Thank you.

Bravo.

Congratulations, my dear.

You've done well for yourself,

there, Bliss.

I'll give these 2 a booking

anytime you like.

Oh, that's very good of you.

Charlie Frobisher.
The Empire.

Here we are, girls.
Best table in the place.

Well.

Here's to Bill
and his shy brother Bob.

How does it feel
to be a star, eh, Nan?

All right.

It feels all right.

Come and have a dance, Kitty.

Go ahead.

It would be a pleasure
to watch you.

All right.
I will.

Hello.

Well, don't you know me?

Jimmy Burns.

I was in the pit this evening,

doubling up here for a bit of

pocket money.

Well, I don't know
how I like you best,

in skirts or trousers,
and that's a fact.

I don't know how

I like myself best.

Well, then, it's nice
to have the choice,

ain't it?

Would you fancy
standing up with me,

for a little twirl around?

Oh, go on.
Say you will.

I don't think I could.

I've had too much cham.

Well, that's all the better.

Up you come.

That's it. Now.

Who's going to lead, then?

You or me?

You can, if you like.

Oh! Oh, I'm getting...

...You've spoiled
my dress.

Soon put that right.

No, get off.
Get off.

I'm going.

You can come or not,
as you like.

I'd better go.

But...

Kitty!

Kitty, wait.

What's the matter?

What did you think
you were doing

making a fool of yourself

with that horn player?

We were only larking about.

Larking about?

His hands were all over you.

Sometimes I don't think
you care about

my feelings at all, Nan.

Oh, Kitty.

If you knew...

I hate the way
you make me feel.

May I really touch you?

Oh, Nan.

I think I shall die
if you don't.

I do love you, Nan.

So very much.

Good morning.

Good morning.

I drank too much last night.

We both did.

But don't say you want to

unsay what we said
or undo what we did.

I think I'd die.

No. No.

It has to be a secret...

our secret.

I wish I'd had the nerve
to tell you before.

Couldn't you see
how I felt about you?

I wasn't sure.

It's easier to be friends.

I didn't know it was possible.

You know, for 2 girls
to be sweethearts,

and to... to go
all the way.

I'd never heard of it.
Had you?

Well, that's true.
I've never cared for

any other girl the way I care

for you, Nan.

Oh.

But the fact was,

I loved her too much
to fret long

over the other girls
she might have loved before me,

for she loved me best,
and she loved me now.

To Butler and King,
the toast of London.

And I was
happier than I had ever been,

and I wished I could
tell the whole world,

but Kitty insisted
we kept it a secret,

even from Walter,

for no one else
would ever understand,

and it was the happiest,
most magical

6 months of my life.

Miss Kitty Butler
and Miss Nan King.

Oh!

Oh! Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

It's only human nature
after all!

Oh.

Walter arranged us

a few days off.

He needed Kitty for some
business meetings,

and I thought it was time
I visited my parents.

I felt strange...

like a ghost.

Nancy!

Is it really you?

Hey.

We shall have to mind
our manners,

shan't we, Davy,

with such a fine lady
in our parlor?

Don't be silly, Father.
I haven't changed.

I'm just the same
as I always was.

She's gone
all la-di-da.

Don't be rude, Davy.

I don't mind, Mother.

Must be the company
I've been keeping.

So, how have you been keeping?

Have you got yourself
a young man yet?

No, no time for
anything like that.

I'm far too busy.

Look, I've got presents
for you all from London,

and I hope you like them,

for I've spent
half my wages on them.

That's for you, Mother.

That's for you, Pop.

That's for you, Davy.

And this is for you, Alice.

My word, Nancy.
You've done us proud.

I shall look quite the thing
in this, now, shan't I?

Look at these, Ma.

Look how they're
soft as butter.

I shall be the best-shod
bloke in Kent now.

Oh, Nancy.
You shouldn't have.

Well, what else would I
do with my money?

Oh, you are a good girl, Nancy.

Aren't you going to
open it, Alice?

Oh, what a stunner.

Don't you like it, Alice?

Well, when would I ever
wear a thing like that?

It seems so strange
to be back here,

in our room.

I hope you don't mind
being invaded, Alice.

Wouldn't make any
difference if I did,

would it?

Oh, Alice.
Please don't be

like this with me.
I can't bear it.

What's the matter?
Was it the hat?

I thought you'd like it.

I thought you could
wear it when you

went out with Tony.
I bet you anything

he would like you in it.

I'm finished with Tony.

Oh, Alice. I'm sorry.
What happened?

I don't want to talk about it.

Hurry up.

Oh, that's better.

What's the matter?

I wrote and told you
I'm part of the act now.

You didn't think I went
on as a girl, did you?

I wouldn't get much work
like that.

But I make a very good boy.

You'd be surprised.

I don't know how you can
show yourself like that.

Kitty can do it.
Why shouldn't I?

Kitty.

Are you two as close
as you ever were?

Yes, we are.

Closer, if you'd like to know.

I'm in love with her, Alice.

Please let me tell you.

We never used to have

no secrets from each other.

Come on, then, if you must.

Well, she's just
everything to me,

and I am to her as well.

Remember how I used to feel

like there was
something wrong with me?

How I never felt anything much

when I was with Freddy?

Well, it turns out

there's nothing wrong
with me at all.

She only has to touch me

or sometimes even just to lo...

I don't want to hear anymore.

You're disgusting.

I thought you'd understand.

I don't want to understand.

I hate anything like that,
all those...

Alice.

If you want to know, that's why

I broke up with Tony,

when I found out he liked men

as much as he liked girls.

He made me feel dirty,

and you make me feel dirty.

I don't wish you any harm, Nan,

but I don't want to
know about your life,

and I don't like you near me.

And please don't try
talking to Mother and Father

about your dirty life,
because it'll

break their hearts.

Alice, please,
don't be like this.

It's still me.

I'm still the same
as I ever was.

Just get into bed.

Keep to your own side.

My own sister
couldn't bear to have me

lying next to her.

I'd lost her,

and all I could think of was

getting away as quick
as I could,

back to London and my
dearest, dearest Kitty,

my lover and my only friend.

I didn't belong there anymore.

If they couldn't
love me as I am,

then I should go
where I would be loved.

My life was in London now,
with Kitty.

Oh, Miss Astley.
You're back already.

Hello.

I'm back early.

Ahem.

Oh, some, they like it this way

And some, they like it that.

The lady dips a curtsy,
and the gentleman tips his hat.

And some, they like 'em
big and fat

And others meek and small.

But whatever they say,

It's only human nature
after all.

Last Sunday I went out the park

Just to take the air.

I saw a girl upon the swings,

And she was pretty fair.

I said, "Now, shall I
give a push

And catch you if you fall?"

"Push on, " she said.

"It's only human nature
after all"

Oh, some, they like
a nightingale.

And some, they like a lark.

And some, they like
a pretty girl

To cuddle in the dark.

Some, they like a pansy.

And some they like a ball.

But whatever you say,

It's only human nature
after all.
