Old man sunshine listen you
|
Never tell me dreams come true
|
Just try it
|
and I'll start a riot
|
Beatrice Fairfax don't you dare
|
Ever tell me he will care
|
I'm certain
|
it's the final curtain
|
I never want to hear
|
from any cheerful Pollyannas
|
Who tell you fate
|
supplies a mate
|
It's all bananas
|
They're writing songs of love
|
but not for me
|
A lucky star's above
|
but not for me
|
With love to lead the way
|
I've found more clouds of gray
|
Than any Russian
|
play could guarantee
|
I was a fool to fall
|
and get that way
|
Hi ho alas and also lack a day
|
Although I can't dismiss
|
the memory of his kiss
|
I guess he's not for me
|
<Interlude>
|
I was a fool to fall
|
and get that way
|
Hi ho alas and also lack a day
|
Although I can't dismiss
|
the memory of his kiss
|
I guess he's not for me

But Not for Me
