(S.Cahn & J. Van Hausen)
|
Here is a verse unlike any verse
|
To a song that you've never heard
|
It deals with the subject that I and the authors agree
|
Is at best absurd
|
Love is a bore
|
Love is a ball game without a score
|
Love is a sail boat without a sail
|
The lock on the candy store
|
Asparagus without the hollandaise
|
Plus all the petty laughs
|
In Tennesse Williams' plays
|
I used to love it but now it's a drag
|
Love is a flag pole without a flag
|
Love is the mailman without the mail
|
A comic without a gag
|
A soap-opera plot and lots lots more
|
But mainly I mean love is a bore
|
|
It's I'll-call-you-tomorrow
|
It's a phone that never rings
|
It's a sack full of sorrow
|
Or a ride on angel's wings
|
So just remember the next time you saw
|
Love is an exit without a door
|
But if you're in love you'll ignore
|
All the things that I've said here before
|
|
And you'll pray that your love
|
Whatever he does
|
Will come back and be
|
The bore that he was
|
Before!
|
