Listen, listen, Miss Chatterjee, the matter of my heart,
The girl from Calcutta is cross, why isn't this better, art?
B.E.T.T.E.R. Better, B.E.T.T.E.R. Better.
Listen, listen, Miss Chatterjee, the matter of my heart,
The girl from Calcutta is cross, why isn't this better, art?
B.E.T.T.E.R. Better, B.E.T.T.E.R. Better.

So dolled up, where do you rush, at fifty's swift pace?
Lest a heart should leap, from your speeding car's embrace.
Oh, so dolled up, where do you rush, at fifty's swift pace?
Lest a heart should leap, from your speeding car's embrace.
As you journey, read the letter, the heart's open plea.
L.E.T.T.E.R. Letter, L.E.T.T.E.R. Letter.
Listen, listen, Miss Chatterjee, the matter of my heart,
The girl from Calcutta is cross, why isn't this better, art?
B.E.T.T.E.R. Better, B.E.T.T.E.R. Better.

Tear the letter of your heart, for whom does it bloom?
Tear the letter of your heart, for whom does it bloom?
You promised love to me, now stakes rise in gloom.
Tell me, how will we fare, this matter of our own?
M.A.T.T.E.R. Matter, M.A.T.T.E.R. Matter.
Listen, listen, Miss Chatterjee, the matter of my heart,
The girl from Calcutta is cross, why isn't this better, art?
B.E.T.T.E.R. Better, B.E.T.T.E.R. Better.

Don't deceive me, my land is Jhansi's call,
Don't deceive me, my land is Jhansi's call,
With your red scarf I'll take, a final, fatal fall.
With your red scarf I'll take, a final, fatal fall.
Oh, as I die, I'll write a letter to the State,
L.E.T.T.E.R. Letter, L.E.T.T.E.R. Letter.
Listen, listen, Miss Chatterjee, the matter of my heart,
The girl from Calcutta is cross, why isn't this better, art?
B.E.T.T.E.R. Better, B.E.T.T.E.R. Better.
