So in the spring of 1953, with former Columbia president Dwight D. It was a hit.’ I said, ‘Did you ever write a hit?’ She said, ‘No.’ I said, ‘You’re gonna tell me that a songwriter who never had a hit is refusing to work with a songwriter who had a hit?’ She said, ‘What are you doing tonight?’ I said, ‘I’m writing with you.’ And that’s how we started.” “She said, ‘I don’t have time to write with you.’ I said, ‘Do you know my song ‘Teasin’’?’ She said, ‘Of course. “I called her and said, ‘I would like to write songs with you,’” says Springer, in a rich New Yorkese cured with the salt of old Broadway. Now Springer sought to join forces with Javits. A sly sendup of coquetry, “Teasin’” had reached no. And his 1950 song “Teasin,’” sung by Connie Haines, had lyrics by Richard Adler, later known for The Pajama Game and Damn Yankees. He’d written “Heartbroken” with Fred Ebb, who with John Kander ’54GSAS would go on to create the musicals Cabaret and Chicago. Springer had already worked with some of the best lyricists around. It wasn’t a hit, but it had sassy lines like The ladies used to like my lovin’ / And I ain’t forgot a thing / I got some oats need sowin’, out I’m goin’ / Have me a second fling. Javits had penned the words to “Second Fling,” a plucky ditty sung by country crooner Eddy Arnold and released earlier that year. Her name was Joan Javits, and she was a staff writer in the Brill Building, the eleven-story song factory at Broadway and 49th where writers, publishers, producers, and performers churned out material in pursuit of the golden apple - a hit record. Material, this stuff is widely varied, impossible to keep track of, and quite frankly, some of it isn't very good.In April 1953, the month Judy Garland recorded his song “Heartbroken,” Phil Springer ’50CC, a twenty-seven-year-old composer on the Upper East Side, phoned a lyricist whose work he admired.
