Hey there baby make up your mind
'Cause I've been waiting such a long, long time
Now baby or never 'cause I been so good to you
Now baby or never 'cause I've been so lonesome, too
Now baby or never if I mean anything to you
Now baby or never 'cause I've wasted so much time
Now baby or never and you must make up your mind

There was a boy,
a very small enchated boy.
They say he wandered very far, very far,
over land and sea.
A little shy and sad of eye,
but very wise was he.And then one day.
One magic day he came my way.
And as we spoke of many things,
fools and kings,
this he said to me.
The greatest thing you'll ever learn
is just to love and be loved in return.

Some fools don't know what's right from wrong,
But somehow those folks belong.
Me, I travel all I'm worth,
But I still remain a stranger on this earth.Some people gloom, other folks fly.
Me, I got to struggle to keep alive.
Ever since the day of my birth,
I've been a stranger on earth.I try to be what all folks should,
Forgetting the bad and doing good.
But no matter how I try,
My troubles always multiply.
I've been living the best I can
Ever since my life began.
The day is gonna come
when I don't have to prove my worth
I won't be a stranger on earth.I've been living the best I can
Ever since my life began.
The day's gonna come when
I don't have to prove my worth
And I won't be no stranger,
Won't be no stranger
Won't be no stranger
On this earth.

I've a beau, his name is Jim,
He loves me and I love him,
But he tells me I'm too prim,
That means I'm too slow.
I let him rant, I let him rave,
I let him muss my permanent wave,
But when he says "Let's misbehave,"
My reply is "No!"It's not 'cause I wouldn't,
It's not 'cause I shouldn't,
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't,
It's simply becasue I'm the laziest gal in town.
My poor heart is achin'
To bring home the bacon,
And if I'm alone and forsaken,
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.
Though I'm more than willing to learn
How these gals get money to burn,
Ev'ry proposition I turn down,
'Way down,
It's not 'cause I wouldn't
It's not 'cause I shouldn't,
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't,
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.Nothing ever worries me,
Nothing ever hurries me.
I take pleasure leisurely
Even when I kiss.
But when I kiss they want some more,
And wanting more becomes a bore,
It isn't worth the fighting for,
So I tell them this:It's not 'cause I wouldn't,
It's not 'cause I shouldn't,
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't,
It's simply becasue I'm the laziest gal in town.
My poor heart is achin'
To bring home the bacon,
And if I'm alone and forsaken,
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town.

It had to be you
It had to be you
I wandered around and finally found
somebody who
could make me be true,
could make me be blue,
and even be glad just to be sad thinkin' of you.

: Some others I've seen might never been mean
might never been cross or tried to be boss,
but they wouldn't do.
'Cause nobody else gave me that thrill.
With all your faults, I love you still.
It had to be you,
had to be you,
had to be you :

Down with love
With flowers and rice and shoes
Down with love
The root of all midnight blues
Down with things
That give you that well-known pain
Take that moon
And wrap it in cellophaneDown with love let's liquidate
All it's friends
Like moon, June, roses
And rainbow's ends
Down with songs
That mourn about night and day
Down with love
Take it away, awayTake it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
To bees and the VienneseDown with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that doveTake it away, take it away
Give it back to the birds
To bees and the VienneseDown with eyes romantic and stupid
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Brother let's stuff that doveDown down down
Down with love

I was a hum-drum person
Leading a life apart
When love flew in through my window wide
And quickened my hum-drum heart
Love flew in thorugh my window
I was so happy then
But after love had stayed a little while
Love flew out againWhat is this thing called love?
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery?
Why should it make a fool of me?: I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw it away
That's why I ask the Lord in Heaven above
What is this thing called love? :

Picture me upon your knee,
Just tea for two and two for tea,
Just you for me and me for you, alone!Nobody near us,
to see us or hear us,
No friends or relations
on weekend vacations
We won't have it known, dear,
That we own a telephone.Day will break and you'll awake
and I will bake
sugar cake for you to take
for all the boys to see.
: We will raise a family,
a girl for you, a boy for me,
Oh, can't you see how happy we would be? :

There is a very quiet girl
They call the lonely one
The sorrow in her face
And sadness in her eyes
And if you look into the heart
Within the lonely one
You'll find it's been deceived
That broken was in liesIs it good to have cried?
With the longing to hide
On your heartaches and fears
Is it wise to be cold, to struggle, to hold back with tears
If you could only see the girl
They call the lonely one
You'd know that since you're gone
The lonely one is meIs it good to have cried?
With the longing to hide
On your heartaches and fears
Is it wise to be cold, to struggle, to hold back with tears
If you could only see the girl
They call the lonely one
You'd know that since you're gone
The lonely one is me

My story is much to sad to be told
But practically everything leaves me totally cold
The only exception I know in this case
When I'm out in a quiet spree, fighting vainly the old ennui Then I
suddenly turn and see
Your fabulous faceI get no kick from champagne
Mere alcohol doesn't thrill me at all
So tell me why should it be true
That I get a kick out of you
Some like the bop-type refrain
I'm sure that if, I heard even one riff
That would bore me terrifically too
But I get a kick out of you: I get a kick every time I see
you standing there before me
I get a kick though it's clear to see,
you obviously don't adore me
I get no kick in a plane
Flying too high with some gay in the sky
Is my idea of nothing to do
Yet I get a kick out of you :

Just for a thrill
You turned the sunshine to rain
Just for a thrill
You filled my heart with pain
To me you were my pride and joy
To you, I was mere little toy
A plaything, that you could toss around at willJust for a thrill
You made my life one sad song
Just for a thrill
You just led me along
Although you are gone and havin' your fun
To me you're still the only one
'Cause you made my heart stand still
It was just for a thrill
You made my heart stand still
Just for a thrillJust for a thrill
You made my life one sad song
Just for a thrill
You just left me alone
Although you're free and havin' your fun
To me you're still the only one
Cause you made my heart stand still
It was just for a thrill
Yes you made my heart stand still
Just for a thrill

Like the beat beat beat of the tom-tom
When the jungle shadows fall
Like the tick tick tock of the stately clock
As it stands against the wall
Like the drip drip drop of the raindrops
When the summer shower is through
So a voice within me keeps
ing you, you, youNight and day, you are the one
Only you beneath the moon and under the sun
Whether near to me, or far
There's no matter darling where you are
I think of you night and day,Night and day, why is it so
That this longing for you follows wherever I go
In the roaring traffic's boom
In the silence of my lonely room
I think of you night and day,Night and day Under the hide of me
There's an oh such a hungry yearning burning inside of me
And this torment won't be through
Til you let me spend my life
making love to you
Day and night, night and day
