Lyrics:dorothy fields music:jerome kern | |
A fine romance, with no kisses | |
A fine romance, my friend this is | |
We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes | |
But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes | |
A fine romance, you won't nestle | |
A fine romance, you won't wrestle | |
I might as well play bridge | |
With my old maid aunt | |
I haven't got a chance | |
This is a fine romance | |
A fine romance, with no kisses | |
A fine romance, my friend this is | |
We two should be like clams in a dish of chowder | |
But we just fizz like parts of a seidlitz powder (*) | |
Yes, a fine romance, with no glitches | |
A fine romance, with no bitches | |
You're just as hard to land as the 'isle de france' | |
I haven't got a chance | |
This is a fine romance | |
A fine romance, my good fellow | |
You take romance, and i'll take jello | |
You're calmer than the seals | |
In the arctic ocean | |
At least they flap their fins | |
To express emotion | |
A fine romance with no quarrels | |
With no insults and all morals | |
I've never mussed the crease | |
In your blue serge pants | |
I never get the chance | |
This is a fine romance | |
Yes, a fine romance, my dear, duchess | |
Two old fogeys, who need crutches | |
True love should have the thrills that a healthy crime has | |
But we don't have the thrills that the march of time has, ba-ba-da-day | |
A fine romance, my good woman | |
My strong, age in the wood, woman | |
You never give the orchids i sent a glance | |
No, you like cactus plants, ha ha | |
This is a fine romance | |
A fine romance, my dear duchess | |
Two old fogeys, who need crutches | |
True love should have the thrills that a healthy crime has | |
You know louis, we don't have half the thrills that the march of time has, | |
You telling me; fine romance, my very good woman | |
My strong, aged in the wood, woman | |
You never give the orchids i sent a glance | |
No i prefer cactus plants | |
This is a fine romance! |
