| [00:07.05] |
At words poetic I'm so pathetic |
| [00:10.32] |
That I always have found it best |
| [00:13.50] |
Instead of getting 'em off my chest, |
| [00:16.92] |
To let 'em rest - unexpressed. |
| [00:20.91] |
I hate parading my serenading, |
| [00:24.36] |
As I'll probably miss a bar, |
| [00:27.75] |
But if this ditty is not so pretty, |
| [00:31.53] |
At least it'll tell you how great you are. |
| [00:40.02] |
You're the top! you're the Collosseum, |
| [00:44.10] |
You're the top! you're the Louvre Museum, |
| [00:50.46] |
You're the melody from a symphony by Strauss, |
| [00:55.83] |
You're a Bendel bonnet, |
| [00:57.81] |
A Shakespeare Sonnet, |
| [00:59.52] |
You're Mickey Mouse! |
| [01:04.38] |
You're the Nile! You're the Tow'r of Pisa, |
| [01:11.40] |
You're the smile, on the Mona Lisa! |
| [01:18.42] |
I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop! |
| [01:23.70] |
But if baby I'm the bottom, |
| [01:26.79] |
You're the top! |
| [01:32.61] |
You're the top, you're Mahatma Gandhi, |
| [01:39.63] |
You're the top! you're Napoleon brandy, |
| [01:46.62] |
You're the purple light, of a summer night in Spain, |
| [01:52.11] |
You're the National Gallery, you're Garbo's salary, |
| [01:55.83] |
You're cellophane! |
| [02:01.14] |
You're sublime, you're a turkey dinner, |
| [02:08.16] |
You're the time, of the Derby Winner, |
| [02:15.24] |
I'm a toy balloon that's fated soon to pop; |
| [02:20.61] |
But if baby I'm by the bottom you're the top! |
| [02:29.79] |
You're the top, you're a Waldorf salad |
| [02:36.96] |
You're the top, you're a Berlin ballad |
| [02:44.10] |
You're the nimble tread of the feet of Fred Astaire |
| [02:49.41] |
You're an O'Neal drama, you're Whistler's mama, you're camembert |
| [02:59.10] |
You're a rose, you're inferno's Dante |
| [03:05.79] |
You're the nose, on the great Durante |
| [03:13.71] |
I'm a lazy lout who's just about to stop |
| [03:18.18] |
But if baby I'm the bottom, |
| [03:21.54] |
You're the top! |
