What's new?
How is the world treating you?
You haven't changed a bit
Lovely as ever I must admit

Oh, what's new?
How did that romance come through?
We haven't met since then
Gee, but it's nice to see you again

What's new? Probably I'm boring you
But seeing you is grand
And you were sweet to offer your hand
I understand, adieu

Pardon my asking what's new
Of course you couldn't know
I haven't changed: I still love you so

Oh, what's new? Probably I'm boring you
But seeing you is grand
And you were sweet to offer your hand
Mama, I understand, adieu

Pardon my asking what's new
Of course you couldn't know
I haven't changed: I still love you so
