A fine romance with no kisses
A charming love with no embraces,
A fine romance, my friend, this is
A delightful love, my friend, this is,
We should be like a couple of hot tomatoes
We ought to be like two ripe tomatoes,
But you're as cold as yesterday's mashed potatoes
But you're as chilly as last night's leftovers.
A fine romance, you won't nestle
A lovely romance, you won't embrace,
A fine romance, you won't wrestle
A lovely romance, you won't engage,
I might as well play bridge with my old maid aunt
I might as well play cards with my spinster aunt,
I haven't got a chance
I've got no chance at all,
This is a fine romance
This is a lovely romance,
A fine romance, my good fellow
A fine romance, my dear companion.
You take romance, 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
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
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
