But Not For Me

Old Man Sunshine, listen you

Never tell me dreams come true

Just try it and I'll start a riot

Beatrice Fairfax, don't you dare

Ever tell me she will care

I'm certain, man, like it's the final curtain

I never wanna hear from any cheerful Polly Annas

Who tells you fate supplies a mate

It's all bananas

They are writing songs of love

But not for me

A lucky star shining up above

But not for me

With love to lead the way

I found more clouds of gray

Than any one of those Russian plays

Could guarantee

I was a fool to fall and get that way

Hi-ho, alas, and also lackaday

Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss

I guess that gal is not for me

It was a drag to fall and get that way

Hi-hi-hi-hi-ho, alas, and also lackaday

Although I can't dismiss the memory of her kiss

I guess she's not, man, she's not for me

She's not for me
