to the tune of I LIKE HIM by Mitch Leigh & Joe Darion
from the musical MAN OF LA MANCHA (c) 1973

CRITIC
[spoken] Why do you follow him?
FAN
[spoken] That�s easy to explain. It�s because� because�
CRITIC
[spoken] Why?
FAN
I like him, I really like him
There is no other tale, but this one, I like him
I don�t need any of your teasin�
Since I liked his �Callisto� episode first season
And there�s nothing you can do
Force-feed me his radish stew
Shoot me down like a hind
You�ll never change my mind
�Cause I like him
CRITIC
[spoken] But what do you get out of it?
FAN
[spoken] What do I get? Oooh! Why, already I�ve gotten� I�ve
gotten�
CRITIC
[spoken] You�ve gotten nothing! Why do you do it?
FAN
I like him, I really like him
Though you may think he is just a chicken, I like him
So tell me, what do you stare for?
�Cause he has always made me laugh, that�s what he�s
there for
People grab him by his nose
He trips over his own toes
Lives to please, the poor guy
May go wrong, but he tries
For his friends, he�ll do right
Ask again, I won�t fight
That I like him!
