Lyrics

[00:00.064] I feel a sudden urge to sing the kind of ditty that invokes the Spring
[00:22.295] So, control your desire to curse while I crucify the verse
[00:32.408] This verse I've started seems to me the "Tin Pan-tithesis" of melody
[00:43.704] So to spare you all the pain, I'll skip the darn thing and sing the refrain
[00:57.223] The night is young, the skies are clear
[01:06.231] And if you want to go walkin', dear
[01:09.402] It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
[01:15.568] I understand the reason why
[01:19.271] You're sentimental, 'cause so am I
[01:22.487] It's delightful, it's delicious, it's de-lovely
[01:28.632] You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance
[01:35.543] You can hear, dear Mother Nature murmuring low "Let yourself go"
[01:42.432] So please be sweet, my chickadee
[01:45.326] And when I kiss ya, just say to me
[01:48.371] "It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious,
[01:54.775] It's dilemma, it's de limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely"
[02:00.962] You can tell at a glance what a swell night this is for romance
[02:07.902] You can hear dear Mother Nature murmuring low "Let yourself go"
[02:14.882] So please be sweet, my chickadee
[02:17.742] And when I kiss ya, just say to me
[02:20.742] "It's delightful, it's delicious, it's delectable, it's delirious,
[02:27.174] It's dilemma, it's de limit, it's deluxe, it's de-lovely"
