Alma lyrics

Send "Alma" Ringtone to your Cell Last December 13th, there appeared in the newspapers the juiciest, spiciest, raciest obituary that has ever been my pleasure to read. It was that of a lady name Alma Mahler Gropius Werfel who had, in her lifetime, managed to acquire as lovers practically all of the top creative men in central Europe, and, among these lovers, who were listed in the obituary, by the way, which was what made it so interesting, there were three whom she went so far as to marry. One of the leading composers of the day: Gustav Mahler, composer of Das Lied von der Erde and other light classics. One of the leading architects: Walter Gropius of the Bauhaus school of design. And one of the leading writers: Franz Werfel, author of the song of Bernadette and other masterpieces. It`s people like that who make you realize how little you`ve accomplished. It is a sobering thought, for example, that when Mozart was my age he had been dead for two years. It seemed to me, I`m reading this obituary, that the story of Alma was the stuff of which ballads should be made so here is one. The loveliest girl in Vienna Was Alma, the smartest as well. Once you picked her up on your antenna, You`d never be free of her spell. Her lovers were many and varied, From the day she began her -- beguine. There were three famous ones whom she married, And God knows how many between. Alma, tell us! All modern women are jealous. Which of your magical wands Got you Gustav and Walter and Franz? The first one she married was Mahler, Whose buddies all knew him as Gustav. And each time he saw her he`d holler: `;Ach, that is the fraulein I moost have!`; Their marriage, however, was murder. He`d scream to the heavens above, `;I`m writing Das Lied von der Erde, And she only wants to make love!
