It never entered my mind

An old-time jazz composition on which Miles Davis has a record as well. It was "introduced" (not sure what that means) by Shirley Ross. It is classified as a show tune, which means it was part of a musical called "Higher and Higher", but became a (jazz) standard.

Once I laughed when I heard you saying
That I'd be playing solitaire
Uneasy in my easy chair
It never entered my mind
And once you told me I was mistaken
That I'd awaken with the sun
And ordered orange juice for one
It never entered my mind
You had what I lack, myself
Now I even have to scratch my back myself
Once you warned me that if you scorned me
I'd say the maiden's prayer again
And wish that you were there again
To get into my hair again
It never entered my mind
It never entered my mind

The American experience of the 20th century is quite cultured and similar to the Bengali experience. Maybe the current American culture is cultural too -- it is hypercultured, to an extent that we don't understand.
