[00:11.251]At words poetic, I'm so pathetic
[00:13.781]That I always have found it best,
[00:16.551]Instead of getting 'em off my chest,
[00:19.348]To let 'em rest unexpressed,
[00:22.422]I hate parading my serenading
[00:25.005]As I'll probably miss a bar,
[00:27.460]But if this ditty is not so pretty
[00:30.653]At least it'll tell you
[00:32.007]How great you are.

[00:56.550]You're the Nile,
[00:59.621]You're the Tower of Pisa,
[01:02.046]You're the smile on the Mona Lisa
[01:07.201]I'm a worthless check, a total wreck, a flop,
[01:11.444]But if, baby, I'm the bottom you're the top!
[01:17.675]You're the top!

[01:35.415]You're cellophane.
[01:39.011]You're sublime,
[01:41.780]You're turkey dinner,
[01:44.244]You're the time, the time of a Derby winner
[01:49.586]I'm a toy balloon that's fated soon to pop
[01:53.612]But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
[01:55.816]You're the top!

[02:10.714]You're the nimble tread
[02:12.360]Of the feet of Fred Astaire,
[02:14.780]You're an O'Neill drama,
[02:16.239]You're Whistler's mama!
[02:17.570]You're camembert.
[02:21.010]You're a rose,
[02:23.679]You're Inferno's Dante,
[02:26.768]You're the nose
[02:29.004]On the great Durante.
[02:31.672]I'm just in a way,
[02:33.146]As the French would say, "de trop".
[02:35.774]But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
[02:37.954]You're the top!

[03:08.910]You're the pants, on a Roxy usher,
[03:13.671]I'm a lazy lout who's just about to stop,
[03:17.896]But if, baby, I'm the bottom,
[03:19.948]You're the top!
