Ah, the promised kiss of spring is here
Wrap it in cellophane
Because I talk to the trees
Give it back to the birds
That mourn about night and day
What does my heart go dancin' overhead
Down with things
Romantic and stupid
You say either, I say either
The root of all midnight blues
What is this thing
And the bees and the Viennese
Down with love
Down with sighs, down with cupid
That mourn about night and day
Like moon, June
Down with love
Give it back to the birds
Brother let's stuff that dove
I go on 'round and 'round
Take it away, away
Romantic and stupid
I go in a spin
You are the one
And bees and the Viennese
Roses and rainbow's ends
Down with love
Let's call the whole thing off!
Like moon, June
Down with sighs, down with cupid
Down with love
Either, either
Let's liquidate all it's friends
Down with eyes
Down with eyes
Brother let's stuff that dove
We go now
Hey, in the spin, I'm in
And I don't stand a chance with a ghost like you
On the ceiling near my bed?
But they don't listen to me
Take it away, take it away
You say neither, I say neither
Liquidate all it's friends
Down with songs
That give you that well-known pain
Take that moon
Roses and rainbow's ends
I tell them
Neither, neither
Down, down, down
Down with love
Down with songs
Take it away, take it away
