He's not so good in a crowd but when you get him alone,
you'd be surprised. He isn't much at a dance but then when he takes you home, you'd be surprised. He doesn't look like much of a lover, don't judge a book by its cover, 'cause he's got the face of an angel but there's a devil in his eye! He's such a delicate thing but when he's starting to squeeze, you'd be surprised. He doesn't look very strong but when you sit on his knee, you'd be surprised. At a party or at a ball, I've got to admit he's nothing at all, but in a Morris chair, you'd be surprised. He doesn't say very much but when he's starting to speak, you'd be surprised. He's not so good at the start but at the end of the week, you'd be surprised. On a streetcar or in a train, you'd think he was born without any brains. But in a taxi cab, and when he starts to grab, I say in a taxi cab, you'd be surprised. This one's a real danger! |

A fine romance, my good fellow
You take romance, I'll take Jello You're calmer than the seals in the Arctic Ocean At least they flap their fins to express emotion A fine romance, with no quarrels With no insults and all morals I've never mussed a crease in your blue serge pants I never get the chance, this, is a fine romance! A fine romance, with no kisses A fine romance, my friend, this is To love should have the thrills that a healthy crime has We don't have half the thrills that the march of time has A fine romance, with no clinches A fine romances, with no pinches You're just as hard to land as the Ile de France! I haven't got a chance, My hearts not made of plastic, You're the reason I'm sarcastic! 'Cause this is a fine, a fine romance. |

I'll be in my room alone
every post meridian and I'll read my diary and that book by Mister Gideon. Bye, bye, baby remember you're my baby when they give you the eye, and just to show that I care I will write and declare that I'm on the loose but I'm still on the square. I've been lonely but even though I'm lonely there'll be no other guy. Though I'll be gone for a while I know that I'll be smiling with my baby by and by with my baby by and by. I'll be gloomy but send that rainbow to me then my shadows will fly. Though you'll be gone fo a while I know that I'll be smiling with my baby by and by. |

I've looked around the country and I've seen it all
and what I want I'm ready to name. It's big and strong and handsome and it's 6 feet tall. I'm gonna file my claim. I've struck a real bonanza and he's rough and rash, but what he's got I'm ready to tame. He's worth a fancy fortune but it's not in cash, I'm gonna file my claim! I got the fever,ooh, the fever, but not for gold in the ground. I want the title to something vital that I can throw my fences around. A girl should never hustle with a pick and pan to dig for gold, that isn't her game. I'll find the man who found it then I'll get that man, who's gonna help me file my claim? I'm gonna file my claim. Ooh, looking for nuggets? Ooh, mush! A, B, C, D, who's gonna file me under love? There ain't a man, not a single man! There ain't a man alive who wouldn't trade his gold for what it takes to stay in the game. So have you fun and spend before you get too old. Who's gonna help me file my claim? Who's gonna help me, help, help me, who's gonna help me file my claim..tonight. |

There is a river called THE RIVER OF NO RETURN Sometimes it's peaceful and sometimes wild and free! Love is a trav'ler on THE RIVER OF NO RETURN Swept on for ever to be lost in the stormy sea Wail-a-ree I can hear the river call [ no return, no return ] Where the roarin' waters fall wail-a-ree I can hear my lover call come to me [ no return, no return ] I lost my love on the river and for ever my heart will yearn Gone gone for ever down THE RIVER OF NO RETURN Wail-a-ree wail-a-re-e-ee She'll/He'll never return to me! [ no return, no return, no return |

If I know just what to say when some trouble heads his way
and can make him feel that everything is good, then I act like a woman and he likes a woman to act like a woman should. If he's late and I'm alone and he doesn't telephone and the kiss that greets him says |

After you get what you want you don't want it.
If I gave you the moon, you'd grow tired of it soon. You're like a baby, you want what you want when you want it. But after you are presented with what you want, you're discontented. You're always wishing and wanting for something when you get what you want, you don't want what you get, and though I sit upon your knee, you'll grow tired of me, 'cause after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all. Changeable, you've got a changeable nature, always always changing your mind. There's a longing in your eye hard to satisfy, and here's the reason why: 'cause after you get what you want you don't want it, baby I don't mean to make you blue but you need a talking to, 'cause after you get what you want, you don't want what you wanted at all. I know you! |

The French were bred to die for love
They delight in fighting duels But I prefer a man who lives And gives expensive jewels A kiss on the hand may be quite continental But diamonds are a girl's best friend A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental On your humble flat, or help you at the automat Men grow cold as girls grow old And we all lose our charms in the end But square-cut or pear-shaped These rocks don't lose their shape Diamonds are a girl's best friend ...Tiffany's ... Cartier... Talk to me, Harry Winston,tell me all about it! There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer But diamonds are a girl's best friend There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer Thinks you're awful nice But get that ice or else no dice He's your guy when stocks are high But beware when they start to descend It's then that those louses go back to their spouses Diamonds are a girl's best friend I've heard of affairs that are strictly platonic But diamonds are a girl's best friend And I think affairs that you must keep laconic Are better bets if little pets get big baggettes Time rolls on and youth is gone And you can't straighten up when you bend But stiff back or stiff knees You stand straight at Tiffany's Diamonds... Diamonds... - I don't mean rhinestones - But Diamonds, Are A Girl's Best Friends |

Hello!
(here we go!) No sorry,not tonight (that was quick!). Shhh! Yes? (Jim?Jack?Jeffrey?) No,it's just that I'm languid. (Well,how do you do?It's nice to know ya). Physically I'm in pretty good shape (brother,you could say that again!) It's my attitude that's passive, you know you're the only one I love (that's all, he's hooked). Bye now (bye now) Hello (where are we again?) No sorry,not tonight (she's languid). Shhh!Quiet! (Bill,Bobby,Bruce?) No,it's just that I'm supine (that's avoided-I know). Physically I'm in pretty good shape (see? she did say it again). But mentally I'm comatose (quick boy, the dictionary!) You know you're the only one I love! (new fish, same hook) Bye now (bye now). (She won't get up,she won't go out, baby! what's it all about? Why,why,why,why,why?!) Well,in simple english I'm lazy,I wanna be lazy, I long to be out in the sun, with no work to be done. under that awning they call the sky, stretching and yawning, and let the world go drifting by, I wouldn't peep through the deep tangled wildwood,counting sheep, 'till I sleep like a child would, with a great big valise full of books to read, where it's peaceful. While I'm killin' time, being lazy. Wrong number,wrong number.. Oh Sam,you're sweet! With a great big valise full of books to read,where it's peaceful. While I'm killin' time, being lazy! |
